Default REAR BREAK HELP!!!!!!

i recently just purchased 1993 camaro Z28. when i took for an inspection i found out it had no rear brakes whatsoever. the calipers, rotors and all other mechanical parts seem to be in order. there is plenty of fluid, they have been bled properally. i was just wondering if anyone has heard of maybe sum kind of problem that these cars are notorious for? such as having bad proportioning values or sumthing with the ABS system....thanx for your help...........Mike

The only reason i could see taking out the back brakes is if i didnt want them to work EX. BRAKE TORQUE, BurN OUT. i would be sceptical because of that.

no one took out the rear brakes......everything is there.....the pistons are moving the pads onto the rotors just with practically no force

A bad metering valve will do that. Replace the master cyl. thats where the metering valve is located.
