I would like to thank everyone for advice to get the rear drums off of my Dad's
1960BT7. I had to use a wheel puller to get it off, but slowly and no damage
and success. Looking at the brakes and age of the components, I'm looking at
rebuilding all the guts of the drum brakes. Just a little history on the
rest of the brake system, the fronts were done just before it was put away 2
years ago, and the hoses were changed over to flexible stainless hoses. So I'm
just looking to do the rear drum innards.
Could someone suggest the parts that should be replaced if you want them as
new?
Thanks for the advice,
Mike

Hello,
I'm new to the list. I just received my dad's 60 BT7 and have a
problem. He parked the car 2 years ago in the garage with the parking brake on
and there were no known issues with the brakes at that time. When we tried to
pull it out, the rear brakes seemed to be locked up. Could this have been the
parking brake locking up, and if so, is it easy to fix? I don't really know
much about the car yet, but plan to get to know it very well over time.
Mike
