Why It Matters
The production 1956 Corvette used four-wheel 11-inch hydraulic drum brakes. Period competition development included specialized brake equipment, but those race-oriented parts should not be generalized to every production car. Drum, backing-plate, hydraulic, date, and service-history evidence should support an originality claim.
