Ryan, I wish I had seen your backing plates a few weeks ago. I just threw away a pair of front 9 inch drum backing plates with zero rust pits. I believe they would have been a direct fit for your car. Got tired of looking at them on the work bench and ASSUMED no one could use them, as most guys change to disc brakes.

From now on, I will post parts for free on here before pitching them.

Car is looking great. Hoping to get to see it at MCACN this year or next. Have fun.

I media blasted the small brake parts I need to reuse. (Some parts are the same in the kit)

I started figuring out my from drums, I replaced one hub and drum and the seal is slightly different from side to side..... hard to explain and hard to post pictures.... I think I have a solution, other than the kid at NAPA staring blankly at me:-(
