Brake My Soul...

So, the rear wheel cylinders are away with Past Parts in Bury St Edmonds being re-sleeved in stainless steel. Now, Tony has removed all four hub assemblies whilst the wheels are in bits in order that they can be cleaned. If you're going to do a job do it properly! They are rather large and heavy and, surprisingly, pretty filthy considering that 519 has only done just over 1,700 miles. Still, I suppose that is over 50 years or so and probably long before jet washers were in common use!

Anyway, they're off to Howard at Rusty Bits in Suffolk to be blasted and painted, ready to be reunited with the rest of the braking system in the next few weeks!
