Default First T '25 cpe w original engine-runs/drives Hydralic rear brakes!!
Where to start- my first plastic model was the AMT '25 T cpe so after 40yrs I finally got a good solid example. Eng no. is 11,***,*** Photo here. It has some kind of aftermarket disc brakes on the rear. 12V alternator correctly mounted.
Check out the Hydraulic DISC rear brakes!! Newc

Found that the rear drums have large disc rotors welded to the drums and hydraulic Wilwood calipers are mounted to the rear housings. Brake cyl is mounted to a pedal? work fantastic will explore it more, and photos some day. Newc
