I know  that most people here will recommend White Post Restorations for
brake and  master cylinder repairs, over Apple Hydraulic. Their work is
supposed to  have a lifetime warranty.
The question for the forum today is, has anyone  had to call claim to their
warranty? If so, how well and effectively was it  handled?
The reason is, I let the 68 Sprite sit for about 4 or 5 weeks. I  get in it
today, to get it out to warm up the top enough to put in up for  the winter.
We have had 2 weeks of rain, and my garage is more of a  carpeted, enclosed
barn. The floor mat was slippery, but I attributed it to  condensation,
since it is not in a climate controlled building. I back out,  but when I
press the brakes, they go to the floor. I get it stopped, an  parked in the
sun. The brake master in empty. I have filled it again, in  hopes of having
enough brakes to put it back in the garage when the  top/hood is secured.
I noticed that the sun had moved, so I go to move it,  slowly, into the sun
again. This time, it won't go into gear. The clutch  master is also empty.
I had White Post rebuild these in 2007, prior to the  LotO trip. But having
them both fail at basically the same time seems odd  to me.
Any comments or thoughts on this from the  collective?

Brad
