Guess I would measure the drum to see if it can turned and check the bearing surface for wear and pitting. If that is all good, then figure out what to do about the studs.

Until you get them out, you won't know the condition of the holes or if stock studs can be installed.

The studs cas3 mentioned are Dorman 610-234. They require a .600 hole. I haven't used them in a '35 drum, so if you consider them it would be good idea to check the shank and overall length on Dorman's web sight to be sure they are suitable.

If all else fails later Ford drums will work with the addition of a wire wheel support ring.
