Great to have you  on the site.  There are a couple of threads in the Site Suggestion area that are good tutorials for posting photos.  Don't forget to register it with the 69 Registry.

welcome tom-cat. the biggest problem is size. you can resize them to a smaller size, but after you do, if you already tried to load them you will need to rename them before reposting them. alot of guys here use photo bucket to work their photos. good luck with that, and again. welcome. :2thumbs:

nope havent named her "'yet"' but in the works , got a question here i was looking for the brake booster and mc and found this in the pile.  this thing is huge and im woundering if this is my only option, of course its gonna have to be chromed out but dang this thing is a monster, also i started another thread  labeled my new 69 the begining

tom-cat

check out my other topic/ thread for the scoup. thanks guys

Not sure on who's the power booster made from , not factory, the master cylinder close to factory look, the off set raised bracket only needed I thought to clear the heads on a hemi engine, SSB brake company maybe, that portioning valve under master cylinder usually down attached to frame rail, looks messy all attached, you can change that , you will have alter change , make new brake lines or order new ones

Yep, what he said. Looks like an aftermarket unit. Maybe from SSBC or Master Power?
What kind of brakes are on the car now?
