Do you have any mechanical knowledge? Have you pulled the back tires off and inspected the brakes?

Re: My E-brake doesn't work
Did it work when you got the car? If so did it suddenly stop? Or was it more "progressive" in its failure? And Ditto with rekomstop above

Pound those discs loose with a rubber mallet, the brakes are on the inside.
