Just out of high school, as a big spender, paid $600 for a nice '40 business coupe. Dad was away on a movie location and on return dictated that I leave the coupe in the drive until I installed Zephyr brakes. Lucky they were common in the low buck yards and were quickly torched off at the axles. He really knew his brakes. Still taking his advice. Good Luck: Fred A
