I had some new brake shoes fitted to the rear, and they obviously weren't manufactured to be exact copies of the original shoes, as they make a strange scraping noise when braking. I tried replacing the drums to fix it, but to no avail. The only thing that it could be is the shoes, because it started when they were initially fitted, and obviously it's not the drums, as it made the nose with the old set too. I managed to find some NOS brake shoes, so I figure that will be the best way to eliminate the noise, or the possibility it's the brake shoes causing it. I wonder if they have good old asbestos in them, I hope so :P
Finally, I found an odd bumper end and snapped that up as a spare...
