I do know that it has manual brakes which I have never heard of disc brakes having manual brakes. Can somebody clarify please?
my 71 gmc has manual disc brakes and i love it! i dont have to worry about vacuum issues with my cam. im assuming its the original set up but its a 40 year old truck and someone might have just put discs on it. Either way they work great, just have to push a little harder at a stop light to stay still.
