<font color=red>Also, I think you have to go back to the early 60's or maybe late 50's to find non-power assisted drum brakes on vehicles too.</font color=red>

Nope. About the early 70's is when it was phased out. My 70 Mustang came with 4 wheel non power drums. Also had a 70's Duster that had them also.

<font color=blue>My 70 Mustang.... ...70's Duster</font color=blue>

I was thinking about my 1958 Plymouth (gigantic fins on the rear) which had power brakes. Maybe only compact cars didn't have them. Of course, my Plymouth also had air conditioning which was rare in those days. I bought it used from a "spoiled" little rich girl whose father bought her a new car every three years. /w3tcompact/icons/grin.gif /w3tcompact/icons/laugh.gif

No, some of the bigger cars came without power brakes also. Mostly just the strippers though. The Ford fullsize striped car had power brakes as an option. Thankfuly my Convertible has power, with 5500lbs to stop, you need all the help you can get.
