    Looks nice Paul. Almost the same as my 1970. Mine is all original... my wife and kids surprised me with it in Jan 2020... car had only 8,700 miles on it. Rear seat belts are still wrapped in the factory plastic. I get a lot of thumbs up, I’m sure you do too!

    Very nice! Was this a Granada brake swap? I've wondered if the factory slots fit the Granada hubs or not, because I am considering a disc brake swap.

    It depends on what wheels you have. The 1973 wheels will not fit, the 1974-up wheels will. The hole in the center is the difference. You can have the hole in the 1973 wheels machined out to the slightly larger size.

    Thanks! I actually found a set of 14x6 Granada wheels for a good price. I plan to use my full wheel covers for a while. I have new 205 70 14's I'd like to wear out before doing something else.

    Motor Wheel Spyders are high on my list, but this sedate Gray Gold Metallic car may just like steelies with dog dish wheels. Also repro 69 Shelby wheels are on the list.

    Just got her in July and am enjoying driving her as she is for now.
