Happy Thanksgiving
It was a beautiful afternoon today in Virginia. I decided to take my 1957 TR3
for a spin. It started right up and I started to drive around the
neighborhood. It felt strange. I could speed up, but it wasn't as peppy as
usual. The brake petal will hardly move. It seems like the brakes are stuck.
When I take my foot off the gas the car rolls to a quick stop. I got out and
felt the wheels. No excess heat when I touched each wheel. I looked at the
back of the car and the brake lights were on with no one in the car.. uh oh..
am I in the twighlight zone??
I went home and jacked up the car. Each wheel would spin (but I'm not sure
they are spinning as freely as they should). The brake petal is still very
stiff? Anybody have an idea what kind of problem I have or what I can do to
fix it???
