Power Disc Brakes - Hauling It Down

We upgrade the front drum brakes on our '70 to power disc brakes. (http://www.mustangandfords.com/projectbuild/mdmp_1208_power_disc_brakes_upgrade_hauling_it_dow n/)We find it rather surprising when we walk through a car show or a row of cars at a cruise night that most car enthusiasts must feel that a quality set of brakes is surely overrated. They must be from what we've seen, otherwise, every car would have four-wheel-disc brakes right? OK, all kidding aside, brakes are a very important part of the overall package. We love to have power under our right foot, a great sounding exhaust, and a sweet set of wheels with low-profile rubber, but having a good set of brakes on your restomod just rounds out that package. Even if you never see a road course or dragstrip, having a solid braking system can mean the difference between stopping in time for that fast-changing red light, or putting you half-way into the intersection (or possibly completely through it!).
