I would completely rebuild the mechanical brakes using woven linings and CAST IRON DRUMS.

You will be surprised how good the brakes are.

I have other cars that have been converted to hydraulics and I am for ever fighting leaking wheel cylinders etc. My Model A is always ready to go no matter how long it has been sitting.

I would never convert a Model A to hydraulics now that we have good components available to properly fix the mechanicals.

My opinion,
