Technical Traditional style front drum brakes.

That's some first class looking brakes!
Will have to keep them in mind for future brake needs on the '32.

Does anyone know how parts availability is on the brakes? There's little info on their site.

 

You should find all the info you need here Fred.

I contacted Mike and bought the full kit. Great stuff, I love it.

Thanks.

 

Im far from a die hard drum brake guy. But I think you made the right choice here with the change up I see myself purchasing a set int the near future.

 

Now that my RPU is on the road I’m happy to report that these brakes were more than worth the price of admission.

I love the look and the stopping power.

I really miss Gary (steel rebel) he was a good friend and I would have liked him to see my completed car on the road.

Thanks. It would be nice to know what happened to Gary’s T.

I’ve been wondering about Fred myself.
I posted in the Bucket of Ugly thread to see if anyone knew how to contact him but not much came of it.

 

I’m going through this now. Collecting parts. Looks good.

 

I've got the same brake setup on my '32.

 

Those look great!.
I have the MT kit on my '47, should have paid extra for the Lincoln brake drums. I went with the repo Ford drums which are JUNK. Next set will be either originals or Lincolns.

 

Just a quick note- my GF's father has a 46 Lincoln Continental v12, heavy car. When he registered it in CT he had to have it inspected. They had him drive it on some kind of brake test setup, he hit the brakes
and the test operator complained he would brake the test machine the brakes worked so well. This was well after disc brakes were standard equipment and all out of state cars or cars over 10 years old had to be inspected.​
