Well, went over there this weekend and spent a few hours attacking the brakes with limited success. I was able to get the passinger rear to free up a bit. I tapped it with a hammer and with the wheel off put the bolts back in. Then I uses the lug wrench as a lever between two of the bolts and was able to get it to rotate. It still has resistence but is free enough for now. I tried the same technique on the other side with no luck. Tried to loosen adjusters and even remove cables but was not able to do much. The drivers rear is still locked up. I bought some dollies and put the car on them and was able to move the car into position to loas it onto a trailer. I guess I am going to try to get it on the trailer on the dollies at this point. hopefully that works.
