Can anyone help me please ? Our 1971 Miniglen brake shoes are very nearly on the rivets . Being mid season we can't afford the time to get them relined . The wheels are 10" diameter ( Mini wheels ) and not the later 12" type . If you have a set of brake shoes with worn linings or whatever I would be interested in purchasing them from you to get relined . This would really help us fulfil our shows etc . Please have a look - You may just have what we want ! Thank you - Impnax 9

10" Mini brake shoes are still available off the shelf, is this the easiest way to buy and red rill mounting holes as necessary?

Thanks Ka , I am not sure whether the shoes are the same as Mini ones ? They look quite " frail " . I will have to wait a few weeks as we have a few shows to attend . Then perhaps I will take a shoe out and try to compare it with the 10" Mini item . Thanks for the input - Regards Bas .
