‘70 Cadillac just placed

West side El Paso yard just placed a ‘70 coupe de Ville. Has complete disc brakes. Any interchange here?

newmexguy is asking if any of the disc brake components will interchange to an Olds. I'm guessing he's asking about for an Olds big body.

A 1970 472CID Cadillac, that was a torque monster in its' day. They used to break the motor mounts on a regular basis.

Can you tell if the speedometer cable runs through the drivers side spindle? That might be a key factor swapping with a full sized Oldsmobile.

Nope. The frame, suspension, and brakes are completely different than on the 65-70 Olds full size cars.

Yes and Yes. Was just asking as to IF any of this Cadillac stuff swapped over to other Division's BOPC large cars. Used to buy stuff like this, try to sell it, and wind up dumping it due to difficulty selling. Not touching it.
