63 question

With so many one year only parts on a 63 is there anything one year only about the brakes and brake parts?

Yes thank you. I should have been more clear with my question. Are the drums or anything related to assembling the brakes unique to 63? I am assuming the E brake assembly is unique.

Thanks

No Z06 so I take that to mean no difference and no need to save the old takeoff parts.

Thanks everybody

Might be worth saving the wheel cylinders - they can be re-sleeved someday and don't take up much room to store.
I saved my 63 originals but have new Dorman units on the car... Everything else isn't worth holding on to...
