Didn't those old Continentals have rear doors that opened opposite to the front doors - meaning the rear doors opened in a suicide fashion?

There's a 1990's Buick Regal or Century (can't remember which) that has one million kms on it... It was in the newspaper two years ago so not sure if it's still in service... Original motor!!!!

Rumours are ACS will create a new Pontiac Trans-Am using a 2010 Camaro...

Looks good. Too bad GM had to kill off Pontiac....

A friend has a 1968 Dodge Charger that has the 4 piston Bendix caliper. Anyone know of a reputable parts supplier in Canada for Mopar parts? He needs the front calipers rebuilt and new brake pads...

Thanks kindly

Is this your buddy, Stemmer? Seems that ebay might be the only way to go.

Hey! Just bought my dream car, 1968 Dodge Charger and I am in the midst of a full restoration and I have run into a bit of a pickle. The car came with discs up front from the factory, the fender tag confirms this option. Here's the pickle, no catalog, manual, or website even recognizes that front discs were an option in 68. A local brake specialist tells me that they are Bendix rotors and that they were part# 141008, which of course, no longer exists. The 4-piston calipers are also branded Bendix. I have been able to get a set of pads for it, but the rotors are proving impossible to track down and the ones that came on the car are toast, impossible to have them turned. Does anyone here have any suggestions with what year/model had the same rotors that are available without changing the spindles? The rotors from 73-76 Chargers are similar, but they are smaller in overall diameter and the inner bearing they use is for a larger spindle. I would appreciate any help that anybody can give me.

I have a pair of NIB rotors & pads fitting the 66-69 Dodge Charger, coronet, Belvedere & Satellite. Was just about to list on ebay and was checking their availability. Contact me asap before I list.

Thanks, Mark

I wonder how an electric powered car will fare in our cold Canadian winters?
