Front brakes were a mess!!!! Tab washers weren't bent up against the 
bolts. The bolts weren't very tight Hoses are wasted. RF pads were gone, 
pad rivets made the deepest gouges I have ever seen in a rotor... 
Calipers seem pretty frozen up... Brake fluid was nasty...  LF pads 
seemed ok, so maybe a bad hose on the left side caused the right side to 
do all the work, hence the extreme wear on that side?

Gonna be an all new parts deal. Bummer... Looks like the only thing 
salvageable is the rear drums... and those had only one retaining screw 
each - Is that normal for midgets?

The wheel bearings were smooth and tight, and the grease seals appear new...
