Owen. Great advice! On my '47 the brakes had a hard pedal and the brakes appeared to be fine when I bought it after basically sitting for 20 years. Three out of four wheel cylinders were seized and the fluid within them had turned to a powder. In yard driving the car it was stopping on one wheel! It is essential that all the brake system be inspected before moving the car.
