For those of you with original stock single MC drum brakes or those of you like me and some others on this forum with dual MC and disc fronts or like my friend Paul who has 4-wheel discs:

See the recall by Toyota and Ford on their cars with "brake problems."

Thank your lucky stars that you and me are "old tech" without "fly-by-wire" (software controlled) brakes. Being an old software tech-head, I know how many software errors are in ANY system. I would not bet my life on a "fly-by-wire" brake system on my classic car, or any car for that matter.

OTOH, I would not bet it on a single MC with drums either, but we have discussed that issue ad infinitum.
