1929 Speed Six - Rear brake drums back from machine shop!
My mechanic just picked up the rear brake drums from machine shop.. They did a great job.. Rear brakes are finally back together and ready to roll! Front wheels are another story.. might need to fix/replace the front axel... Ouch!
Now this is an amazing Bentley up for auction at Pebble!

More on my 1929 Bentley Speed Six repairs: Greg Porter dropped off the perrot shafts and right side brake drums at machinist. Front brake drums are getting the new bearing races installed. The rear drum has a ridge between brake and handbrake shoe. It is being cut .005 which will bring it diameter to 399.80 mm max is 403mm
New brakes getting installed on the 1929 Bentley Speed Six. Greg Porter is working hard on some long needed maintenance items on it.. Bearings, King Pins, Linings, etc... all needed work.. Ordered parts from England and brake shoes were re-lined by Chris at Industrial Brake and Clutch. See pics of rear brakes going back together!!!
Time for some work on the Speed Six! Brake job, new king pins, and new bearing!!! Had to order parts from England....Ouch!!!
