I'm looking for 1 front and 1 rear brake drum '49 Custom Eight.
They don't have to be "legal" (worn past turning)

I just need something I can bolt on to be able to move my Packard from my yard to the shop.

I have a '47 Custom Super parts car near Scottsville, KY. It has 4 or 5 rims (if there's a spare) plus the hubs on it, none of which I intend to use. I also have a bodiless frame parked next to it with the same stuff on it. If you're ever out that way,I can get you connected with the landlady to collect that stuff - some disassembly required. I'm in VA for the foreseeable.


Let me see if I can find anything closer. that's a 16 hour drive round-trip for me.

Thanks for the info. I'll keep it in mind.

If the price isn't too steep.

I'm heading up to see family in Philly soon. Maybe I could pick up?

I was measuring incorrectly. They are indeed 5 inch 5 lug.

Now, if I can just find some drums.

Did it not come with the original wheels? Some people have extras.


Car came missing drums and wheels/tires from one side. It looks like the previous owner was in the middle of doing a brake job when something happened.
I found a new master cylinder and brake cylinders in the trunk.

My guess is he took the drums to a shop to be turned and never came back for them.

I'm missing two drums, one front and one rear as well as two rim.

Best I can tell the bolt pattern is 5 lug 4.75.

Can anybody confirm?

Also suggestions for a set of wheels that would fit this car.

Thanks all!
