Which parts exactly? I have the '53 grill and front end parts, and I think I have 1 or two front brake drums still.

If you still have the front brake drums and backing plates and would be willing to ship them let me know how much and shipping etc., nice Henry J, thanks, Mike

Hi Mike, I'm out of town for a week. Coincidentally, I'm staying in Detroit/Ypsilanti near the old Kaiser plant for a few days. I'll check on what I have when I get back. I think I have both front drums and backing plates.

Make sure you save the brake shoes as they are no longer available, I have been trying all over the place and no one has anything. I have to have my old shoes re-aligned at 25$ per shoe.

I have a set of new in box EIS 166 4 brake shoes.  Not sure if that's what you're looking for.

[Mike Richards]

Henry, did you check with Willow Run KF Parts? I just got some shoes for the front end a couple months back.

Thanks for the info, at this point I want the brakes done this week and shipping will take at least one week. A buddy passed these links on to me.

Does anyone know if the EIS 166 brake shoes are for KF, and if so, what years/models? 

$40 plus shipping.

Thanks.

Work on the HJ slowed down a bit recently, but this week I started placing the Buick motor int he car. I have it placed correctly right now with a hoist and a jack under the transmission. I had to cut some holes in the firewall and the trans tunnel to get it in there, but it's in! I have a friend who is pretty decent with sheetmetal who can make patch panels for the holes I cut. My hope is that it will end up looking fairly factory when done. Next I get to work on making some motor mounts and a transmission cross member.

Hi Mike, sorry, things have been pretty busy for me the last month or so. This weekend I will finally have some time to go through and see what parts I have. I'll let you know.
