..the stuff in the trunk was probably worth more than the whole car... master cylinder, calipers (front and back), brake lines, fuel injectors, fuel lines..etc...etc... all in and ready to ride...right to another garage where I could start the body work. |

..yeah...the "rebuilt" rear calipers were great...thanks again Eric... the "brand new" front right caliper was the cause of my bleeding problems. and my arm is getting tired from throwing money....need to sit back and drive it a while. |
