Actually if you needed new drums and/or mastercylinder, the cost to have any shop do it would be ridicouls. I had to get new drums all around for mmy 64 1/2. There were worn WAY past minimum thickness, like 120 thousandths wear.
Drums alone cost me 145 dollars, and I did the work myself. If you throw in the usual 15% mark up, and labor, it would probably be close to 400$.
Do the brake job yourself, but check your drums closely to see what the wear is on them. I have seen a drum break apart before, it was so worn and it cracked, then broke to pieces when the braked were applied. Also be weary of those damn star adjusters.
