You might try yearone - they typically have restoration parts for most any project you have
Thanks a lot everyone!!! has anyone bought brakes for these cars off of amazon.com?? They have good prices, but don't want to waste time buying the wrong stuff and having to send them back. Is there a difference between the front shoes and the back or are they the same shoe?
i'm sure they are the same ,but Do Not get brakes that are bonded,get the ones that are riveted. bonded brakes get hot then fall apart !
THE FRONT AND BACK SHOES ARE THE SAME, I FOUND NEW OLD STOCK SHOES, BUT IT TOOK ME A YEAR TO FIND THEM, YOUR BEST BET IS T HAVE YOUR OLD CORES RELINED.
