FYI: Midas turned (machined smooth the inside braking surface) my '64 rear brake drums for $30/each after tax.

King George Highway and about 24th Ave, but they probably all do it. They were amused by having such an old part, but obviously their lathe could handle it, which was especially good for me as local suppliers are out of new rear drums for old busses.
