I'm helping a friend with his recently acquired 1965 Bonneville and the first thing I'd like to do is upgrade the big dumb drums to power disc brakes to slow this tank down! What other cars a good bolt-on donors for front (and eventually rear) disc brakes?

Thanks!

I'm researching the same thing for my 67 LeSabre. Good luck finding old parts that bolt on. But as far as I can tell, anything that fits any same generation b body, the impala for one, should fit.
