    I agree. I cant stand when they buy a cl***ic and upgrade it because they want it to handle like a modern car..just buy a new car for that. Im staying with a 6V battery and points as well. I want the full experience

    The safe is relevant to the guy working the tools. You zip thru it in a timely manner it's unlikely to soften the adhesive bond, and if you're still worried, out comes the drill and a few pop rivets to counter sink in as extra security. Not saying you should, just that it's what I'd do.

    Seriously; just send them to Brake & Equip and have them relined.

    Get some new hardware kits while you are at it.

    Good brakes are better than the alternative.

    I never said they have N.O.S. I only suggested you might want to check with them as they have a lot of pats no longer available. I wish I was a young!

  11. My thoughts as well. Brakes are not the place for a "Mickey Mouse fix".
