My project is my family’s ‘83 280ZX and I need help.
So, I’ve yet to put my ‘83 280zx in the garage because I ran into multiple problems. Maybe someone could help out.
• Brakes are locked up
• Transmission stuck in reverse
• Hasn’t had oil change within 20+ years
I haven’y gotten to work on her due to the weather always deciding to rain. The car is surrounded by mud and I was thinking about trying to slide it into the garage. Would it be possible or should I just take the brakes off? All wheels are flat as well.

Welcome to ZDriver!
Locked up brakes... Front? Rear? The usual culprit is the e-brake cable on the rears. Give the caliper ebrake mounting levers a thump with a mallet.
Transmission... auto or manual?
Yep change the oil and drain the gas.
