    wow, the comet brakes do exactly the same thing, only the thing is that started AFTER I redid the front brakes ....cylinders and shoes ..... maybe the drums are next, but there is no shimmy when stopping ........:confused: kinda not makes me not want to do the back now ....... Robert

    i would say check your drums to make sure that they are both the same size but then you say after you use the brakes it goes to acting normal. worked on a barracuda with 4 wheel drum brakes and it nearly drove us nuts. coul adjust the brakes and the drive it down the road and the it would get worse the further you drove it finally figured it out after swapping drums from one side to the other. was still able to get new drums then and that solved problem. as far as Miss Betty goes she was the origanal sandm queen ohhh baby tye me up and whip me good lol it hurts so good
