finally someone brought up wet brakes ....I have had my 63 go through a puddle and then go to hit the brakes and NOTHING (have to ride the pedal for 1/2 mile to keep them working) I have a 73 crew cab with disc front and have never had "wet brake problem" as for keeping it original looking YOU LOWERED IT? hum i don't remember that as a factory option....remember that the older these get the harder the parts are to get and as stated above there is a reason you dont see drum brakes very much any more
