Am I the only one that finds this scary ? I certainly hope they were
trailer queens !
Brake lines tend to rot from the inside out, so visible rust MAY be an
indication of a weak spot.
We all have our phobias, mine is driving down a mountain with no brakes. I
just hate that feeling you get when the pedal flops to the floor; and you
discover that rear brakes really don't do very much at all going downhill.
And since I enjoy driving Triumphs in the mountains ...
