Martin has recently heard from Dave Brown with more good news on the Sebring coupé restoration we gave you a first look at recently. This time it’s the brakes, and they’re back to as-new condition and installed on the car.




“After 66 years, the brakes are back to new and installed. It will still be some time before I bleed the system to make them work, but things look very good now.”
There is still some way to go before the system is bled and working, but it’s another important step towards getting the car back on the road.
Dave also points out something that makes his car particularly interesting. He has a complete parking brake assembly, and he hasn’t seen a photo of another Sebring with one, so his may well be the only one.
Do you know otherwise? If your car has its original parking brake assembly, or you have photos of one on another Sebring, we’d love to hear from you: send us your news and photos.
Thanks to Dave for the update. We’re looking forward to the full story of his build.
