The Stovebolt Flagship ('49 3800) has started locking up the right rear brake coming out of the winter storage. Today, I pulled the wheel and drum -- Everything looked okay, so I just doused it with brake cleaner and sprayed a little WD-40 on the linkages (letting everything drip for about 30 minutes before I put the drum back on), put it all back together and took a test drive to the transfer station (where we take our trash) and everything worked as it ought to.

Yay for me -- I actually fixed something smile
