A '63 Super I drove had brakes that made you think you'd run into a brick wall. Had Dunlop B7 bias belted on front and Continental radials on rear. It gave youa headache. My Drauz Roadster's brakes always pulled to the right.
These aren't just any drums, massive for the size of the car, dual leading edge shoes up front (requires two brake cylinders per side instead of just one).
Properly adjusted, broken in, and properly bled these have quite good stopping for their year.
Very sentimentally attached to this video since I am lucky enough to own a 1960 Drauz T-5 Roadster with a S-90 engine profiled earlier in this video. Love it, just love it! BTW, my drum brakes work just fine, thank you very much!
8:25 gee, I HOPE so!! ;-)
