I was cleaning the outside of the rear brake drums and I noticed something that may be a problem or not!!

The rear brake drums show some wear in places where the wheels contact the drums. I measured the depth of the wear spots and I got .006" Please see pix

Is this a problem?

Here is the pix --some how it didn't get attached--probably pilot error.

the brake drums on the Model A`s are part of the wheel structure. they are made that way, it will be just fine.
