Project Car

I had a 63 buick garaged for several years, it had all new fluids when it got stored away. Time flew, I lost track of time. So, I went to drive it one day, made 180-degree spin upon braking from a car that cut me off. Brakes locked up on one side. The brake fluid absorbed moisture; corroded wheel cylinder closest to master. I had already driven the vehicle for 30 miles and no braking issues gave any indication something wasn't right. It wasn't until this panic braking that it showed wasn't working correctly. I did a hard brake on empty street afterward and it was very evident, pulling to one side.

I suggest you change brake fluid every so often even if you don't drive it.
