It is a drum brake on both rear wheels.

I assume that drum brake is on the inside of the rotor? Gee I remembering replacing my parking brake on my
old Vette with stainless steel parts drum brake parts. The old Vettes had that same setup.

Thanks for posting this. I guess I should read my manual more. I was wondering how the emergency braking function worked on these cars in the event of failure of the normal brakes.
