When I did the brakes on my '51, I just went ahead and ordered one of those kits everybody advertised. When I got it and tried to install it, I found that the new shoes were made of thicker material and the adjusters wouldn't fit. When I had pulled the old shoes off, I had noticed that they were riveted and had the "Ford" script stamped on them. I sent the new kit back and looked in the Yellow Pages (this was a while ago) and found an outfit that relined shoes. Two days later and for a reasonable price, I had the relined Ford script shoes ready to go back on the car.
