Don,
Had this happen to me once in a 1958 Impala I had a few
years ago. Driving into a car show in a park I was going
maybe 5mph at most and went to turn into a parking area
(with telephone poles laid down as the barriers) and the
brake pedal went to the floor. Repeated stabbing did
nothing, so I hit the foot pedal for parking brakes and got
it stopped right before hitting those telephone poles.
Even at 5mph it felt like all of a sudden the car sped up to 50!
Power booster MC had leaked out all the fluid in just a few
miles.
There IS something to be said for the newer dual brake systems!
