Brakes, when searching for the rear disc brake calipers used on the
Sebring 3000s , these are standard Girling items, I found that same
basic caliper was made by Fiat to be fitted to their luxury 2300S
model. In this case they were single piston on the inside half and twin
cylinder in the outer half with a hand brake mechanism fitted.. Similar
calipers were fitted to Colin Chapmans Lotus Elite from the 50/60s.
So the message is , get it in good condition, adjust it correctly and
maintain it regularly. This may be as simple an act of lubrication and
greasing as in; generators, distributors, steering boxes, kingpin and
drum brakes etc.
