63 f-85 rear brake shoes

Is there ANYWHERE on the face of this earth where I can get a set

of rear brake shoes for my 63 cutlass? The brake shoe width is 1 3/4"

and all I seem to find are shoes with 2" width. The car has 4 lug drums.

Kanter sells the shoes (and all other brake parts) but they are pricey. I've also found a number of these brake shoe sets on ebay. Also, you can get your old shoes relined.

I service this car fully and am a FAR BETTER Source for parts for this car. I have Upper and Lower Ball Joints for this car in the Original GM Tin Cans -- and charge no more than the repros.....
I have front & rear shoes (# 195 & # 196), front & rear wheel cylinders, front & rear brake hoses, front & rear BRAKE DRUMS, and a whole lot more...
Just joined Classic Oldsmobile... and we're all going to be glad I did!!!

Hey, I know this post is old but I was curious if you've still got some parts for the 63 F85?

You will likely have to call him. He is on here now and then but it will be much easier to call him. He is a great guy to deal with. I have gotten brakes, shocks, and many other things from him for the 61-63 F-85 cars

Yes, I still have mountains of N.O.S. And U.S.A. Made parts for the 1961 - 1963 Olds Cutlass / F85 s and 1961 - 1963 Buick Special / Skylark.....

Not everything I had 11 years ago --- but, still, quite a bit..... Call me, whenever you need or want.....

Yours, Craig.....
