FYI on 55 - 59 Rear Disc's on a 10 bolt.

I ran accross a fellow truck builder (I for got his screen name here) last week end and saw his factory looking disc setup on the rear of his 59. He had a 77 nova 10 bolt axle with 1998 - 2001 camaro rear disc brakes and best of all its a bolt on deal. He had the calipers, brackets, e-brake setup, 12inch discs, bought off ebay for about $200, Sweet deal. The only draw back was you needed 16 inch wheels if thats really a draw back and you'll need `12 -12.5 dics on the front, again not a real draw back. So this should help those that are looking for rear disc on the cheap. I was impressed with how simple it was and how clean it looked. I believe that a nova and 3100 backing plate bolt patterns are the same. Nova is bolted and the 3100 is riveted.
