Guys
a buddy has a set of big brakes off a 1966 telephone company van.
To my best, I do believe this is what Carroll used for the 65-66 ?
Decent usable drums and plates
Any idea of value,?
Not sure if the axles would be the same length of not?

Hi John,

Images might help to confirm they are indeed the same brake parts used on the 65-66 GT350's.  The common knowledge is that the brakes came off a 1963 Fairlane station wagon.  The backing plates and drums should have K/H markings as well.  There are some variations between early and late.  Backing plate part numbers are 49294/5 or 70390/1.  The drums will have three nubs or no nubs and no cooling fins.   I am not sure about the van, but its possible.

Cory,
He said that he will verify the #'s.
Seems to me they should have a ford logo a,d KH stamp, correct?
What are the inner original plates worth?
