Ok, Since I just got up, the pisc will be alittle longer. John ( Cougar8775) was here helping me. The teeth on the flex were flat because the starter was grinding on it. Why I have no idea but it took 2 starters to figure this out. I have the garrage for 2 more days so if there are any cheap of free mods I can do let me know. I wana get as much done in the time I have.

Well the rear brakes are shot, so right now it has none at all. Bleeding will not fix it.  Does anyone have any cheap, maybe local brake parts.  I have the finned drum brakes and need basicaly every single rear brake part.

Mike, rear brakes are cheap.  If I remember, you can get a set of shoes and brake hardware for under $30 for both wheels.

How is every single part worn out. The only parts to go bad are the shoes, wheel cylinders, and adjusters. That stuff is pretty  cheap.
It's Gumby's fault.

The return springs can wear out and sometimes break when you're taking 'em off.  Even so, it's like $5 for the hardware kit for both wheels.

But, some other mods might be more important.

Me and John are looking into the T/c rear. And every part was rusted, worn or broken off. It sat for too long and rusted and broke the springs. The drums havwe deep groves, the shoe's are gone, the springs are rusted or broke and the wheel cylenders are both leaking. So as I see it, I need everything.
