Re: Just how bad are the brakes of 67-70's c10?

I've got the original, all drum setup with no power assist. They work, but compared to modern brakes, they're merely a suggestion. You have to make sure you leave plenty of following distance and plan ahead... I just got my truck back on the road after sitting for 10 years in the wife's grandfather's barn, and have never driven it in the rain, so I can'tv tell you about braking in the wet. These brakes are, well, an adventure and I'd recommend an upgrade if you're not looking to keep it stock.
