Pat welded a new frame head in for him a couple of years ago.

Welp, finally got Steve's car into the garage today after two years of procrastinating :confused04:;

Definitely something wrong with the brakes, had to go and get some brake fluid for starters to check the system but I 'm pretty sure it's the master and its only 4 yrs. old. &(rage_

Went to pull  TheStrap out and the battery was dead &(rage_ that never happened before &(rage_ Did I leave the radio on???

This is to much!

Need a nap.

Found the choke was not turning off, all brake lines are rusted and can't brake any loose and one emergency brake cable is rusted in the on position so I can hardly turn wheel by hand bawlin)0

Looks like I have to order all the parts for a major brake system overhaul. &(rage_

Need another nap so I don't have to think about it.
