And this roof is the exact reason why I can’t bring myself to paint this car.

The patina is spectacular and she will look fantastic when I have finished my work on her

Good job. Looks like that fuel tank has seen some off-roading. I know what you mean about the rotisserie goal.

Ok so I have just started to gather the brake components to drop it all to PBR for resleeving and relining but I have found the rear RHS brakes have been scavenged in the past.

I’m putting the call out for a REAR RHS brake assembly.
Everything in between the backing plate and the drum please...

Prefer it all to be NFG as I’m getting it all overhauled anyways.

Let me know what you have got and I’ll work out a deal with ya!

I can supply an FB/EK rear wheel cylinder (minus adjusters), but all my brake shoes are 1-1/2".
