What calipers are these? exactly

1970 Possibly B&E... I've been working on these cars since the mid 70's & I've only worked on two E bodies that actually had them... One was a T/A, the other was a 340 car.... Lots of R/T's without... Maybe they all got swapped out before I worked on the cars but considering how long I've been working on cars & how few times I've replaced calipers I doubt it....

Just an example of a car taken off the road in 1977 that when I got it in 1995 it did not have wide mouth calipers... Still had original rotors, drums, wheel cylinders, tie rods, ball joints.... Nothing had been touched... Yet somehow the calipers got changed? Doubt it....

Had both of those years ago when I was parting cars in the mid 70's into the early 80's. Never thought much about the difference....

I think I have a brand new pair of those. BRAND new but I painted the red VHT. I’ll check and post pics. Are they not available any more?

New? Not since the early 70's.... Rebuilt/restored? Occasionally for $$$....

I worked in Dodge/Plymouth/Chrysler dealerships from 70-78 and do not recall ever seeing those?
