I went to check out a '66 deuce today. It was in running condition..but not driving condition. The brakes didn't work on it. I looked it over pretty good. One thing I noticed, were both front wheels were wet inside the rims. I thought it was probably the wheel cylinders, but it was all over the boots too. Would a leak wheel cylinder leak onto the boots too? I smelled it and it seems odorless, but I'm not 100% sure it was not gear oil. I know what gear oil smells like, and it sure didn't smell like it. The drum on the left rear axle had what looked like brake fluid on it too. On a positive note, it started right up when he first hit the button and the engine wasn't warm because I felt it before he started it. I noticed on top of the fuel tank there was a little diesel where the fuel lines came out from the top of the tank. Anyways, just looking for a little advice/helpful knowledge. Thanks
