    I think even NAPA can get you some. I know they have wheel cylinders for these.

    They really aren't that bad, especially on a light car like a bucket. I have '46 drum brakes on the front of my '23, and '40 brakes on the front of my '27, and they stop on the proverbial dime. The key is to use new parts and adjust them correctly.

    I like the old school look, so I use drums.
