    I've seen lots of posts and articles about finned Buick drums on early Fords, but has anyone here ever put them on a mid-30s Chevy? I'd be interested in what was required to pull it off. :)

    Thanks!
     
  2. Don't know about that, but if you still have the '36 brakes, I might be interested in them (my '28 still has the rod-activated push an' prays) :)

    Ford and Buick brakes are 12". Chevrolets are smaller.

    Thanks for the info, Guys. I'm picking the '36 up tomorrow and will have some answers after that.
