Damn sad to hear man... I feel your pain.

For some reason it's always the REAR rotor that goes out first..

save one motor core.......cause if you decide to get a rebuilt motor, you can knock off a big chunk with that from the core charge (mine was 700$) sorry to hear about the car,she's not dead though, just needs a heart transplant........

u might only need a back rotor, on my 85 you overheat them a tad and you will melt the seals to the rotor..but why the back rotor you ask? i was told b/c the back rotor get alot less oil than the front one causing it to go first..just my 2 cents

No compression on rear rotor...

Try the ATF routine before you give up on her.

If not, - J Spec for 900 bucks. at FC3s.com

If it were mine, I'd at least give it the ATF treatment, and say a prayer. Maybe it will have an Easter resurrection.
