"65 Newport rear drums

[65'port]

Hi folks, newbie here with a '65 Newport 2dr 383 2bbl, pix coming (they won't be pretty...). I'm having trouble finding rear brake drums, I'm located in N. NJ. Any ideas?

Thanks

Thanks! But they seem to only have the front drums too, just like everywhere else I'm looking.

Well, apparently no has the rear drums, even though the fronts are everywhere. Guessing you all know of him already, but Frank Parks of Mopar Restos in GA has a decent set he's going to spruce up & send to me, great guy who has often come through for me in the past.

Frank is not a great guy but as long as he has what you need.........good for you

Good luck finding the rears if they are 11 x 2. I finally found front (11 x 2 3/4) and rear drums (11 x 2) yesterday. Cost for all 4 plus s/h was about $300.00. Found them at Hidden Valley auto parts in AZ. Also try car-parts.com. Good luck

They were actually 11 x 2.5.

Hidden Valley has them for 75 each. You probably can get them to take 50.00 each. The promise that they are turnable if needed.
