Help with Brake Callipers

Post by J »

As most of you know my brakes aren't working that well, it appears to be a problem with the callipers.
My ultimate aim is to save up for and HR front end and get it all fitted properly but I will need $500 to purchase and a few more hundred to get it installed (money I dont have at the moment, and probably wont have for another 6 months).

I would like my car to be back on the road for the summer so I was hoping one of you with some good knowledge of brakes could please come over and help me get it on the road again. I can pay in booze!

The story of what happened is here : http://www.fbekholden.com/forum/viewtop ... 27&t=11841

Cheers
