great news! was this a factory R/E? Many of us have other types of R/E in our car. How about a brief write up of the details and some info on Scarebird products. Safety Faster!

He has bracket assemblies for a lot of rears. His claim to fame was well engineered relatively inexpensive kits using readily available calipers and rotors. MG page shows no products available, but I know he sold them for years.
