1967 Corvette has rear disc brakes, not drums.

Hi Guys,

I replaced the rear brake hoses today. While everything was apart I removed the blocks, cleaned them and blew out the lines. Put everything back together and pressure bled the system. Whatever it was, we solved it. The car has 100% brakes right now.

Thanks for your help,
Dave
