[Roadsters] --> Who makes rear brake disk kits? Drum brake pad epoxy? SRL311

[RWM]

450 degrees F is nowhere close to the heat resistance needed, even for 
the rear brakes (assuming they are properly adjusted and work).

Trying to rebond friction surfaces is a recipe for getting a separated 
liner jammed between drum and shoe at the most inopportune moment, an 
opportunity to find out how well **one** of the rear brakes can work.

As you ponder the disk replacement issue, get the drum brake pads 
rebuilt.  In my experience, Porterfield does a nice job in a variety of 
friction surface specs.
