Bill,
The parts are for another member of the FOT and this might be good
information for him, depending on his budget or inclination.
I have some parts available for him but this is a good time for him to
explore the alternatives. Thanks for the response.
I suspect that this will be another good learning experience for some of us.
Thanks,
Joe
Still plan for Portland in 2000, but will likely arrive in another white
TR3A than planned.

Joe,
If your question leads to something you're looking to sell rather than
buy, then this is a totally useless response, but if you need calipers,
consider the Wildwood replacement. It's a bolt-on, that weighs a
fraction of even the TR6 aluminum calipers (vs. the TR3 cast iron boat
anchors)much stiffer, has excellent pad material available (even Kevlar)
and it's a four pot--all for less money than anyone wanted to sell me
aluminum girlings.

I'll keep it simple:
* Are all brake calipers interchangeable through TR2-TR6? I know
there
are different configurations, but perhaps they mount the same.
* Core Question....What would a good price be for "core" calipers
suitable for complete rebuild...without sleeving? Pistons/seals/cleanup
and
paint.
* Rebuilt Question...What would be a good price range for rebuilt
TR6
calipers that have not been used since rebuild, nicely painted and
sitting
on the shelf.
Rather sell the cores because I want the rebuilt ones for back up to TR4
racer, but might consider it.
Thanks,
Joe
