Hi. Need one [1] brake drum [[66 version without nubs] ready to mount. One of mine is cracked and must be scrapped. Safety first.

PM me if you have one. Thank you.

All the best,

Steve

I have this original KH brake drum. During the course of my annual check and cleaning of the brake system, I noticed this hairline crack [see photo]. There was no issue in braking, but I felt prudent to remove it and replace both drums with some American made racing drums from Cobra Automotive.

OK, me question is can this drum be repaired??? If not, does anyone have an extra, just 1 that they might turn loose of??? My car is an early 66 model [406].

Thanks for looking,

Steve

Agreed. Nothing replaces being present at the auction. LOTS of Shelbys tomorrow [Friday]. I plan to be there again tomorrow just for the excitement. Really nothing like it. Nothing really sleezy about them, IMO. They are just selling cars and satisfying dreams!

Steve

LOTS of Shelbys crossing the block on Friday and Saturday! Going to be fun! I have seen a lot of them and it will be very exciting!

"I watched J186, the red KR and it was a no sale. Did it sell later?"

Yes, it sold later but I don't remember them announcing it. They tried hard to hammer it sold on the block, but I guess the dude needed to "reflect".

Lot # 211.1...  1967 GT500. Just returned from the auction. 2 people bidding on the car. The one guy [sitting next to us] just did not want to go past $270k!!! Auctioneer convinced the other person [a lady I think] to bid $300k to shut him out. BOOM...$300k! THEN, since he lost that car, he immediately bid on a really nice 4-speed Hemi Cuda 2 cars later and walked away with that for $250k + 10% so $275k! He said he really wanted the Shelby but ended up with the Cuda. Lots of fun and some marvelous cars for a Friday before the big week! Will be going again next week a couple of times.

I have an original 5A air cleaner base that needs professional painting - Ford Blue. I have tried for years and just cannot get it right. If any of the restores is shooting some Ford Blue, I would really appreciate having a shout out to have it done CORRECTLY. The paint has been removed and it is ready for primer or whatever the process is.

Thanks for looking!

Steve

Thank you.

Steve

Who restores them??? I have a set that needs work.
