I got rotors for my 98!!!

After two months of searching I found a new set of rotors at a brake shop in Wilmington, CA for my 1970 98. It was the last two he had. I thought I would mention it since this guy has a lot of business with older cars and maybe he could help somebody here find drums or rotors no one else has. The shop is called Drum Garden. It is near Long Beach. The owner is a bit crusty, but knows brakes. The rotors were $150 each and $25 each to have the hubs pressed in and the initial turning. They have a website, but it is pretty basic.

Nice score.
There are lots and lots of treasures hidden and stowed away at old mom 'n' pop repair places across the nation - just have to find them.
I had a similar experience with some Ford parts a few years ago.
Those rotors should last you a lifetime!
