Brand "New" Old Parts
One of the drivers at my auction had LBCs years ago. He was kind enough to give me some leftover TR4 parts he had laying around. These items were never used - but they are about 40 years old.
New set of Parking brake cables - and lever assembly
New set of Raybestos front disc pads in original packaging.
How good will these two items be after all this time? The brake pads I wouldn't use regular - but keep in the trunk as a spare set. When was the last time a brake pad split up though? The parking cables I don't know if they are seized or not after all this time. My car doesn't need them right now.
Also - there is a new tonneau cover folded up in a bag. It appears to be in very good shape, just moldy. How do I unfold it, and bring it back to health so it is usable? I was thinking of leaving it outside in the sun on warm day to soften the leather, then clean it off, and treat it to some saddle soap.
