I have been daily driving this 64 lately & even after new cylinders, hoses & such the brakes are still ineffective. Its a six, all original so I really didn't want to disc brake it, but the manual drums are useless. Anyone have any experience with the high dollar shoes that are available? I am hesistant to plunk down large coin only to be disappointed & go disc after all. Brian

I had a 63 & never could get good brakes on it,
even with power. I tried some different shoes
& the cheapies worked better. I would go to discs.

They say money can't buy happiness. It can buy old Chevy trucks though. Same thing.
