    What are these ATE calipers - on a 1966 911/912

    HI - I've been on the forum and looking all the caliper related posts but can't find any that are the same as these. You guys must know?

    Any help would be appreciated

    I'm not sure. It would help to see the back side, and to know the piston size. They sort of look VW but could have come from many European cars.

    They look like early BMW 2002 front calipers from a 68-70 1600 or 2002

    Yup... those are very heavy Bimmer calipers for solid rotors. Not a big fan because of the large pad for the solid rotor and the weight.
