He didnt know much about the car, the car was passed to him as payment for fixing one of his client's hummer. Everything seemed perfect with the car when i bought it, it was the 3rd day i had it when this happened, and ive driven it before with no problems what so ever.[&:]

Nice looking ride. Scary thing with the brakes going out all the sudden. First check the brake fluid level and make sure nothing is leaking around the resevoir or master cylinder. Leaks are bad news. If all thats good check all the vacuum lines going to the master cylinder, trace them out and make sure the lines are not cracked, torn or leaking. If thats good you may try bleeding them and checking the brake callipers for leaks. As for the two tubes you may want to try your heater and see if it works, I own a classic so I am not sure on your car but they look like supply/return lines for the heater core. Good Luck and welcome.

2nd on the two tubes being for the heater. They look the same as on my old '84. If your heater doesn't work, there's a good chance the heater core leaks and somebody bypassed it. If your heater does work then I have no idea what they are for. Either way, great looking stang.

You did good, Hang in there with what you have in the end you will be very glad. Some one else used vehicle is always going to have some problems you don't know about.... Be patient.
