I have just finished restoring a 1957 TR3 that was left sitting in a
corn field for 20 years.  On the first highway test drive, the pressure
in the brake lines built with every push of the brake pedal until the
wheels locked up.  If a bleeder is opened an the pressure released, it's
fine until the brakes are used a few times again.  The master cylinder
and all wheel cyls are new, as are the lines & hoses.  What could be
causing the pressure to not release?

Thanks, Jim
