Hey Guys Would it be OK to put them on a car with steelies? I think I have only seen them on hot rods with custom wheels. Thanks Dover |

Of course, you need to cool those brakes before the next corner. Unless you are driving on dirt and then you just slide on through. The one rule of modelling autos, and building Hot Rods: "There are no rules" |

No matter what you aredriving , you have to stop. Buick drums with Linclon backing plates is the only way to go. We were using Buick drums on our latemodel back in the mid-60s. |
