Default Re: 1940 Brake Bleeding

Fordy .....I have not thrown anything away yet, as I could not even see what all I had until I washed it all off. Once I get it cleaned I'll be able to match the new shoes with the old. I bought the whole braking kit from C & G about 6 years ago. The fronts all seemed to match up okay. I hope the rear will be the same. Didn't have to send back as an exchange. I already threw out the fronts and didn't look to see if they had a Ford Logo on them These rears MUST be original. The car has 86,000 original miles and I'm the 3rd owner in 80 years. can you imagine that ?? Once I get things all cleaned up I plan on taking photos and disassembly piece by piece. I could NOT see the complete wheel cylinder because of the sludge build up !

Thx.....Mike
