I think the problem lies with the aluminium quadrant. I have often wondered if replacing the quadrant with a pulley arrangement would be worthwhile. One of my cars used to pull to the left, now it pulls to the right. I know the reason why, I recently changed the springs that are fitted to return the brake levers to the 'off' position. The fact that the car pulls to one side (or the other) does demonstrate that the front brakes are working to some extent, a luxury that not all Austin 7 owners are privy to!
