Who wanted to see my brake setup?
About two weeks ago one of you asked me if I had any pics of the brakes installed without wheels. I didn't but cleaning up last weekend for Goodguys I had them off so here you go.

Cliff notes....
-Buy used brakes off Corvettes.com forum -order Kore3 mounting brackets -take apart calipers -file, sand and hand smooth CORVETTE and casting flash off caliper - drop off at CNC shop for OLDSMOBILE script to be milled -spend 6-7 hours with high heat tape and x-acto knife masking letters -drop off at powder coater -10-12 hours with a tiny dremel and x-acto knife cutting powder coating and tape from lettering -assemble calipers and install on car I have as much time and effort in these brakes as anything else on the car but its fun answering the "Wherd ja order dem from?" questions I get at shows. ![]()

Are the letters raised or depressed in the metal? I really can't tell from the pic.
