The popular belief is that sintered metallic brake linings pretty much last forever. And my 90K mile '63 is testiment to that - the fronts are original.
But they are definitely worn, and for years, I've been looking for another set of front linings. I was nearly able to grab a set off eBay one day until they went through the roof - the only set I've seen for sale in the past several years.
What are my options here? Is there some source for these? Is there a manufacturer who is manufacturing a replacement? Can mine be re-lined?
If I want to keep driving it safely, the only option I can find is to remove the J65 option from my car.
