Thanks Bob! You are by far the most help I have had so far! What would your
full set be worth?

Thanks again..

I have a Pitts S1-C homebuilt from 1973 and the wheels and brakes do not
have any markings on them, I need to get some replacement shoes. Someone

Yup, old (waaaay pre-MATCO) Rosenhan. Also used on HP-14 sailplane. I
have one full wheel/brake set in stock. I think the shoes are a
Rosenhan special.

Your best bets are probably:

* Call MATCO and see if they got any of the old drum brake parts when
they took over the Rosenhan operation.

* Send the shoes out for relining. My recommendation would be Vintage
Brake in Sonora, CA (http://www.vintagebrake.com).

And, by the way, I've been told that the rebuild kit for the wheel
cylinder is NAPA Auto Parts wheel brake kit #127. That kit contains
the rubber cups that fit the wheel cylinder.

Thanks, and best regards to all
