Re: Brake Squeal
Yes, the rust would indicate that the brakes are not really working. You could try using some 80 grit sand paper to remove the rust from the drum and clean up the shoes. Model A drums are turned all the time and the shoes re arched to the drums. Just make sure they don't overdo it and make the drums too thin.
Are some kind of shields available to close up the holes in the drums and keep the water out? Has the car been sitting for a while, where rust could have happened. It looks like the drums have a print of the shoes.
