Front wheel brakes on early Hudsons

I am a bit concerned about the stopping ability of my 23 once I begin

to drive it. I am sure the rear wheel brakes can stop the wheels from

turning but that does not necessairily mean that the car is going to

stop! This is particularly true as there is so little weight back

there. As I love to drive these cars, and considering the density of

traffic these days, I was wondering if anyone had, or knew of anyone

who had, fitted front brakes to pre 1927 Hudsons. I can see that

fitting front discs would be quite simple but mounting the calipers

looks ugly. I know this would not be original but one must consider

safety.



I am also looking for the crankshaft fan belt pulley(mine got cracked

somehow) an ammeter, and a horn button. I have lots of 26 and 29 bits

available.
