Drums or discs ?

[Yeye]

Hi,

I purchased a 300 '71 with a precious help from my friend, it is now waiting on the port for shipping to Europa.
In the meantime, i'd like to place an order at Rockauto's for a couple of usual wear parts:

- all filters + tranny seal
- belt
- spark plugs and wires
- Carburetor seals set
- throttle spring
- wiper blades
- brake shoes or pads

Now the car is gone, we don't have any option to check if it is drum front brakes or optional discs, except pictures of master cylinder and front wheels...

What is your opinion ?

That looks like a disc brake master cylinder.

According to the size of front reservoir ?

According to the size of front reservoir ?

The disc brake cylinder has a larger reservoir for the front brakes, which is the reservoir towards the rear.

Interesting air cleaner, is it a 383 car?

According to seller , engine has been replaced...
I will check engine # once the car lands in europe.

Loosen upper bj but by couple of turns and with t bar pulling down smack with bfh near upper bj stud. It will pop. Put jack stand under LCA and lower car till weight on LCA then remove bolts and upper bj nut and remove spindle. I personally would have LCA bushings changed while spindle is out if they are more than 2-3 years old they are probably bad or headed there.

I THINK THIS WAS MEANT FOR THE THREAD "DRUM TO DISC"
