After weeks of working on the brake system, we decided to move on to something a bit more productive - body work. Well, not so much real body work, just a little rust removal and priming. I've tried body work years ago, but I wasn't that good at it. Sooooo - I was thinking I'd just pay someone to do all the minor repairs, replace the really bad parts, and then have it professionally painted. However, several friends have suggested that I should try the body work again, before paying. What the heck! I have a second door off a wrecked car, so I may try my hand at bondo. If I can't master the simple stuff, I'll just have it done. No big loss. ;)
After working on the new door, I'll probably go back to the brakes one more time. I now have all the new brake hoses, which should fix the bakes for good. Time will tell. Stay tuned.
Good luck on body work. You may need to have someone show you the ropes!
