Same here, I am looking for new drums for the front on my 1962 buick special!
Can't seem to find any?
Has anyone ever tried parts from other GM models such as the F 85 or Tempest?
1962 Chevrolet Nova had 4 lug brake drums.
Looks like Kanter might have them:

The replacements seem to be cast iron only.

Yes, I have heard that too.
I have tried looking for those too but am having a hard time as well.
Do you happen to know a place where they would sell them for the Chevy?
The Buick Special / Skylark and the Olds Cutlass / F85 of 1961 - 1963 are the same brake drums ----- and I have them, as indicated......
The 1961 - 193 Pontiac Tempest / Lemans are V E R Y different (different SIZE for starters....) and I have them......
The 1962 - 1963 Chevy Nova is V E R Y different again................ and have them.............
I have N.O.S. ++ ASBESTOS + Brake Shoes --- at the moment --- for all of these applications...... as well.......
Life is great -- when you know me!!!!!!!!!!! ---- Craig.... 516 -485 - 1935..... New York.......
