As you may remember from yesterday, I was replacing the calipers, shoes, springs clips and hoses on the rear brakes (first time since buying the car back in '96). The shoes, though cracking were actually in good condition. Not too surprising considering I don't believe they'd ever been adjusted (and not being self adjusting brakes, they were probably leaving most of the breaking to the front rotors for years). Yesterday was a bit chill for a convertible with no top. Today it rained, but a break occured long enough for me to take a short spin in my spitfire. The breaking was phenominal. I can't remember the car ever stopping so quickly or with such little down force. I'm assuming it's a combination of the bleeding, proper adjustment and the braided steel lines. -Terry P.S.
