I had a '70 B that wet the carpet. :-)     My present '69 B lost fluid 
over time, never did find the leak.  That's the MC that I replaced 
because the check valve(s)  would stick intermittently and the pedal 
would go to the floor.   Replaced it with a repro unit from lbcarco 
(moss) last spring.  Haven't had a problem since.
