You can get the pinto size rotors with five lugs from speedway motors. On the rear I run an 8" mustang II with maverick axles and redrilled the drums. The only problem is, the maverick flange to center the brake drum is smaller than the pinto brake drum center. :-\

Title: spoiler

Yes thats a ralley spoiler. About ten years ago or so there was a lot of pintos and 70s mercury capris at the local pick and pull. I got the front and rear spoilers and back glass off an all orange and black ralley pinto. I don't think I could ever get used to that color? I mentioned the capris because some of them had 8" rears with 3.55 gears.
