Default Re: Converting 1940 Ford backing plates to self-energizing brakes

Not rocket science to convert them; but unless you can do the work yourself, the Lincoln repops are probably more economical. If you are going to buy, tough to beat Speedway's deal on the MT brakes.

Of course in some cases, people want to retain the "look" of early Ford brakes.

Others may prefer the appearance of "real" Lincoln brakes as compared to the unaesthetic appearance of the Lincoln repop's backing plate stamping.
