My 64 122 sat in the garage for a few weeks while I removed and cleaned the gas tank (used the POR-15 kit which you guys recommended, it worked great!) and today was the 5th day after sealing it so I poured some fresh gas into the tank, started her up, she was purring like a kitten, I was so happy it was fixed and started rolling down the driveway, then hit the brakes...THE PEDAL WENT TO THE FLOOR...NO BRAKES! I quickly pulled the emergency brake and stopped the car just before I ended up in the road...whew!! So, I take a look in the brake reseviour...bone dry! I look on the floor of the garage and see a big puddle of brake fluid on the floor where the back tire was. Then I remembered my mechanic telling me about 3 months ago that the rear brake cylinder had a slight leak. I had no idea you could completely lose your brakes in these cars over a slight leak on one wheel. Now I realize why the 67-on 122's with their dual circut brakes are preferred! I guess you have to keep a close eye on the brake fluid level in this older cars!:-0
