The car should start without dials, yeah. You mean you can't undo the wheel bolts or the rear brakes are stuck on?

[novashaw]

oh sorry the brakes are stuck!!

[gazz]

hit the back wheels with a hamer till they release

[General Baxter]

Floor it lol

[Mike]

remove rear wheels, and hit the drums with a hammer, or the GM jack ;)

[novashaw]

k sound, is this a common problem?

[gazz]

or the GM jack ;)
Or the razorjack - my rears were seized so I just gave the car a hefty shove and it loosed up :D

...altho if that failed, plan B was to whack it with a tractor lol

When you hit the drums, hit them on the lip on the inboard edge so that you don't deform the braking surface.
