[T3] brake fun


Hello,

Thanks for the Bentley suggestion.  No luck yet with finding locally.
Attempted to bleed rear brakes and shaved off the nipple.  Had sprayed
with WD-40 before hand but too much corrosion, I guess.  Anyway, rear
e-brake definitely not releasing.  Was able to spin rears after jacking
up rear end, but took much effort.  Should I hit the local junk yards
(not very many) or can these parts still be found?
Will probably need to replace e-brake lines? and rebuild the cylinder
damaged during bleeding.  Any advice from here is appreciated greatly.
I really want to get this puppy on the road.  Also,  have found a few
wasp nests under the side air grills.  Any ideas on how or if I should
attempt to clean.  Thought about water under pressure,  looks like there
are spring loaded doors that drain the system (Is this correct?).

Thanks,

kevin
