You could do the same thing I did, use the entire brake system off a donor '73 Plymouth Scamp. Just like a Dart with a Duster front clip and doors. As long as you grab the upper a-arms, spindles, disks, and calipers,(I can't remember if you need the lower arms too, but I used them) it will all bolt ...

The social impact of a certain type of internal combustion engine on society. hmm. On society as a whole, there probably is no effect. More likely, its influence can only be measured in the car-culture subsets that adhere to a particular brand. For those people who only associate with certain makes ...

This will probably get me banned, but here it goes..... I've got an idea, let's all just start posting pictures of fast cars on this website regardless of make or model.
