Brake Drums!

Hi,

Yesterday I left the rear drums of my SV for turning, but they were
un-saveable. A previous owner had some "wrong" alloy wheels without a
spacer on the car, so that the contact area between wheel and drum was
not on the usual flat area around the bolts rather than on the outer
drum circle. The drum is distorted and has small cracks around the
bolts.
My question is if anyone knows if the alpine drums can be found on some
other cars (MGB??). Here in Sweden an alpine is an unusual vehicle, and
I guess my chances to find the drums will raise drastically if I know
some equivalents.

Any hint is appreciated,

Jochen
