Hi Rich - Ada appreciates your comments but says SSHHHH!!, keep it quiet otherwise everybody will want some.

To say it was an "interesting drive" is an understatement. I was only a pilot vehicle and I was "packing it".

I have attached two images of this convoluted brake system. The first one depicts the complete cylinder whilst the second one depicts the cylinder with the brake actuating levers and piston removed. The other interesting thing was that the brake shoe can simply be removed by pulling it out as it is only attached by a spring plate for want of a better description. However you can have this system on your own.

BTW, canopy stowed away secure as are all the stores. Just need to get a good cover to protect that fine paintwork.

Bob
