Great stuff guys. Like your second one brickyard, looks like it could be one of the many farms around here with old snowcovered cars sitting beside the barn.
Doesn't look good for me making this one either. Brakes went out on the car, the only ride I have at the present time, and had to try to get my truck with a blown engine out of the garage myself in a snow covered driveway, sore ribs from slipping and twisting funny shoveling at work, and when I finally got the car into work on, Found out both rear lines were bad in the same spot. Not good since its a diagonal system. And of course both those lines run next to one another and a bad spot that mud, salt and snow can pack up, so would be easy enough for both to go out, leaving you absolutely no brakes. Good thing I had a little brake to be able to get the car home and they didn't both totally go out on me while driving.
Not an easy task replacing them either, being it uses all stupid metric bubble flare. Had to get adapters to run some standard line. Then go to start bleeding the brakes, and snapped both bleeders off the wheel cylinders, even after plenty of pentrating oil that was allowed to sit. So try to bleed them from the short little metric line I have left, and of course they are rusty and end up snapping them off too. So walked to napa this morning for two new wheel cylinders and surprisingly at least had two short section of metric line to replace what I broke. So now all but the hoses should be new from the doors back. Hopefully I can somehow get it fixed before work on Monday. Old rusty cars are so much fun.
And I still haven't picked my brothers christmas present up from Sears, and haven't got a present for the nephew or mom yet.
