Hea there ichard I checked the photo's and yes they are drumms on the rear.
I also like the imported bodies as I now have two off them as you know the SSS 1600 I
scored and since then I also accuired a imported 1600 wagon too.
I have another 1600 wagon which I have had for a while and the new one is much better
( ie a lot less rust)
Any how once again I am sorry for saying YUL OOZ had rear disk setup I remembered
reading that it did.
I wasn't picky enough to check that it did or didnot have them.
Any how bye for now.
