Thanks David. The name of the car is completely tongue in cheek. My car doesn't come close to so many of the builds on here in terms of quality. I appreciate the compliment all the same.

Wish I could offer you some better advice! Maybe someone else will chime in.
Greg, it's just the cables. That's what kind of ticks me off. I have C5 rear brakes with the factory parking brake inside the rotor. The setup came off a low mileage C5. They should be working but with the pedal changing its feel in between presses, I can't help but think something is weird with the cables. I'm going to look into it some more. Luckily, putting it in gear holds the car. Thanks.
