Just a quick update, and a quick question. I got the brake drums cleaned up (they had already been machined) and painted. As per Dave's comments, I only applied a single thin coat of primer and a single thin coat of chassis black.

Interestingly, the old paint that remained was quite thick; a fairly thick layer of red primer and a thick layer of black lacquer. I'm pretty sure it was original paint. Admittedly, there weren't a lot of areas left painted.

The plug for the brake light wires that goes to the socket on the transmission was shot (see photos below). Anyone know a good source for such a piece? I looked through Restoration supplies catalog and could not find anything. I couldn't think of another source.

Thanks,

Tom
