your a beautiful man tony.

I'll upload some pics when I can but I've recently rebuilt the brake cylinders on the F15 with new parts from MACs.
For anyone that may need them the part nos were:
front 1 3/8in kit 91T 2221
rear 1 1/2in kit 91T 2128
I also ended up buying a master cylinder rebuild kit from MACs too instead of salvaging bits off an old wreck. The part number was 91T 2004 A

Here's some pics from today.
A couple of NOS brake shoes, one front, one rear.
As I said earlier the rear one needed a hole drilled for the handbrake gear and some grinding to its mid section. All fitted nicely then. It's didn't have Ford stamped on it so it may have been a chev shoe?
The front one was a NOS Ford shoe.

Did a bit more today. Rebuilt and fitted the brake master cylinder.
Also pulled a gearbox off a spare sidevalve so I could get to the lower pressure plate shroud. This I needed for the sidevalve that is going into F15. Was very surprised to find the gearbox and shroud bolts come out very cleanly and easily after their initial break. This was from a truck that had no cab and had been sitting under cypress pines for many years.
Was also doing some cleaning of a wheel off the F15 and came across this ID.
Didn't know they had them.

I've still only done one wheel on mine and it had this stamping..........

Cool rob. I wonder if the original stamps still exist.

Ryan your picture made me curious and I had a quick look at my Blitz, without cleaning I think I have two General Motors and three Kelsey rims. The 600 over 16 looks like it is stamped on at least one of the Kelsey rims.
