I'm on a budget here, so I've rebuilt the original drum brakes.
I've been amazed at how many parts are available at your local auto parts store. I bought brake shoes, wheel and master cylinder rebuild kits, and the rubber brake lines a lot cheaper than the restoration catalogs advertise them for.
After all, I'm building this car to drive, not to be an "All Original" paperweight.

My brake hardware cleaned up very well. The only new hardware I bought other than those mentioned above, was one wheel cylinder that had a broken bleeder valve. |
