Cool wheels. They remind me of the old Indy Drag Mags I had on my 66 Bug. Of course that was back in the early 80's so they were nothing special at the time just old wheels. But I thought they looked pretty killer.

Cool , adapters to fit the smaller diameter VW brake cylinders to early Ford backplates ? Guess Ford brake shoe ends or the VW cylinder pistons will need some mods to work together ?!

It's amazing how similar the closed dimension, shoe travel, and shoe2cylinder connection is. Plus, a 40 Ford 2 door sedan with a front flathead needs far greater stopping power than a lightened rear engine vw. We think it will work.
