Default Wide 5 brake drums

Does anyone rebuild them? Very hard to find good used ones. Ray

I have a set of drums from a '37 V8-60 that I have been dragging around for the last 20 years. The rear drums appear like new and the fronts are are probably usable as is and if I measured correctly, have enough material left to be turned a couple of times.

I don't know about shipping as they are kind of heavy. PM me if you are interested.
