Uh Oh! That is a later backing plate from a 1939 to 42? I think. You've got Hydraulic brakes! For all that's worth! Some guys love em. Some don't! Granted they're a larger diameter and wider shoe. But they seem to bind up when left alone for a while. and don't use a single master cylinder. Call Speedway Motors and get their catalog. They have a lot restoration, and hot rodding parts that you may consider using. I know they had a Chev two port (2cyl) master Cylinder rebuilt for $35 they were selling. Call them at 1-800-979-0122.
