    Don't think it's worth getting them cleaned up lol

    so the thickness of the piece below is 0.850 inches
    the diameter is 11inchs and the hub diameter where the bearings are is 1.69inches

    Starting in 1970, the bearings changed. Check the casting number on the spindle, it is on the inside. That will tell you what the spindle is from.
    C8O... is 1968-69.
    D0O... is 1970, rotors are the same 1970-73 though.
    D1O... is 1971-73, maybe even later.

    So looks to be a D50W 3108 if i'm reading code right. But I'm not getting a match so far on my searching. I guess 2 things is it worth cleaning them up or replacing them if I ever figure what they are.

    Well that won't fly, the first Fairmonts were built as '78 models and are Fox chassis with a totally different front suspension... The Monarch was the Mercury twin to the Granada...
