11" Brake drums from a long wheelbase Hudson - NOS

Looking for 2 front and 2 back 11x2" brake drums, ideally new old stock or if not NOS then they must be in good condition since the car is used for racing here  in the UK. Does anyone know of any or any suppliers over there in the USA?I have attached a photo of my car competing in 1937 on the RAC Rally

    48 to 53 Hudson 11" brake drums can easily be fitted to mid 30s Hudson axles.
  • Hi Ken

    Thanks for the info.

    The shoes are 1.75" but the drums are 2" wide.

    I have contacted Race Mettle Ltd who will make a copy in aluminium with a cast iron insert for reasonable mone

    The drums they have ex stock are £250 to £285 each. - Not my idea of reasonable but great to know they can be made.
