Dont worry guys, I wasent going to drive it in this condition. The only reason it got driven this morning is because I had to have the exaust moved in oder to drive this weekend, it was a mile away.

The hoses do look old. I found somthing tonight that might be the problem. BOTH hoses look kinked and bent badly againts the top spindle nut. The hose turns to solid tubing right after this point, so I dont see how I can get around it. Anyone else have this problem? How should I correct it? Im going to buy new brake lines tonight. Ill borrow money from my parents if need be.

I tried bleeding the brakes again, with my brother pushing the pedal and me watching with the bottle. The left side [the one not releasing] had fluid come out quickly and fine. The passenger side on the other hand had difficulty getting fluid out. If my brother didnt push the pedal completly down, no fluid would come out. Hope this is enough info.....
