    I asked previously as to the value of finned buick drums, I have a fully machined set, complete with backing plates and all new in the boxes hardware to fit early ford axles. I aquired these in a trade, was going to use them on my 28 chrysler coupe, but not so sure I like them, may go to discs, cause I like them, and most of my stuff is hiway speeds. I'm wondering what they're worth, not that I'll ask their value, but I'm curious.
    By the way, to clear things up, I am not a troll, its my nickname from my biker years, my signature is actually Trolls "T" after my first car.

    I'd be interested in the Buick drums and parts if you are willing to part with them. I don't know what they would go for... but they are worth at least a couple hundred to me... if a complete set-up, I'm an hour north of Spokane.
     
  3. Wow, I never realized that drum brakes were unsuitable for highway speeds.

    Good point, I am always amazed at what others see in a post, and how it can be interpreted. Funny how when you're typing, you don't read what others may.
    I'm in Princeton B.C., not all that far from Spokane, I'll let you know.
