Just picked up a 52 chevy sedan. Pretty solid. Came from out west. Its in a lot better shape than the 53 I had. Got it in the building and pulled the front wheels and drums off. I'm going to have the drums turned. hey looked good. Pulled the wheel cylinders off and let them soak over night. Plan on rebuilding them. Pics to follow.
