Hello all, I'm a newbie to list. Just purchased a 68 fastback in incredible condition. Tested the brakes briefly before I blasted off onto the interstate. Seemed to be dragging somewhat. Tried to slow down for highway truck, OH MY GOD, pedal hits the floor. Well some serious pumping and downshifting prevented certain demise. 30 miles later I'm home and SUPRISE, no brake fluid and a rear drum that was close to spontaneously combusting. I've bled the brakes with some benefit. I'm pretty sure the e-brake is not releasing. Have ordered the Idiot book. Any quick recommendations until the book gets here? Hope to add pictures to the t3 site soon. Thanks. regards, Kevin. ------------------------------------------------------------------- List info at http://www.vwtype3.org/list or mailto:help@vwtype3.org
