Fred,

 

Somewhere around here I have a set of rotors off my '74 from when I upgraded the brakes. They are obviously used but had no warping, although I'd recommend resurfacing them while they are off the car. Are yours beyond resurfacing?

 

I also have a couple spare turn signals, I'll dig them out and peform a function check if there is interest.
