New to this forum, picked up a very nice Nepal Orange 1976 with under 50k original miles. When I push it backwards in the garage it rolls without resistance, however when pushing it forward I hear the calipers rubbing on the rotors and feel resistance. May need to just drive it more but need to get it registered first. PO did not drive it as it was in his collection with many other Porsches. Other than driving it more, any other possible causes? Seems odd it rolls fine backwards. Looking at service history, PO did have the rear brakes done at 47,421 miles in 2018 and only another 2500 miles since then. Replaced rear calipers, pads and rotors, flushed and bled entire system and adjusted caliper pistons and parking brake.

It's typical for a car that sits, especially in a humid environment, to develop surface rust on the rotors. Usually a couple of good stops will clean it off. This can also happen in relatively dry environments, even.
