You can't
cut corners on the brake system |
Some of the most extensive modifications to
this car will be to the brake system. I will use power brakes, rear
discs, five lug rotors and the emergency brake will be on the drivers
side.

In order to fit the brake booster, part of the frame had
to be cut and relocated.

|
The 3/4" tubing has been
braced with a piece of tubing underneath. In the finished car you
won't even see it. |
|
|
|
|
|
With the wide frame tubing at the
door sill the Fiero emergency brake handle is a tight fit. |

In order to make this work I had
to fabricate brackets and modify brake cables. After it was
completed, it worked pretty well. |
|
|
|
|
|
With this installation, you end up
with one very short cable and one long one for the passenger side.
Don't worry the tie wrap holding the cable will be "upgraded". |

I had my helper check my
work. |
