Quick story of origin. My cousin bought an old Beetle cab a few years back that had been converted to Porsche 5 lug. The fronts were a disc kit, and the rears were drilled drums. However, these rear brakes came with the car, and he gave them to me. He has no idea what kind of car they came from, and neither do I.
- Bolt spacing is same as Porsche 5 lug - Calipers are ATE, 3.75" spacing, single piston, no PN found - Hubs are 12 spline stamped Germany SHW 477 501 605 - Backing plates are stampted with a similar 477 xxx xxx number - Parking brake assembly similar to 911 inside disc - Spacing on 4 mount holes is 3.5" diagonal - Discs are vented, 11 3/8 (290mm) Given the design of the caliper, these appear to be old, like sixties old.
