I'll need drums, shoes, maybe cylinders, not sure. You guys just buy stuff at NAPA or wherever, or somewhere else?

Rockauto.com is my favorite source. They usually carry parts from more than one manufacturer, which often gives you the choice of North American made, or Chinese junk. When I rebuilt the brakes and suspension on my '64 Valiant, I was able to find nearly all the parts I needed on rockauto, and better yet, they were all North American made.

Best part...their service is great and their prices beat most suppliers.

Don’t forget to use Rock Auto 5% Discount code located on a sticky in “The Slanted Networkâ€￾ if you decide to shop there.

I usually shop around. Summitracing and Jegs or even ebay or amazon. Rockauto is often the best deal, but if you get a lot of different parts, they charge extra shipping if the items come from different suppliers.

Thank you for the lead to the rockauto, I see I can pay via my bank. Much easier even I'm canadian and have choices of makers that made parts.

Cheers, Wizard :)
