Almost every time I hand push my '74 2.0L out of the garage, I hear this annoying clicking noise coming from the left front wheel area. The noise seems to disappear once the car is out of the garage and I never hear it while driving. The noise seems to only occur when the car is pulled backwards and never forwards. I do not hear it if I jack the car up and spin the wheel. I have pulled the wheel and see nothing out of the ordinary that might cause it. I am stumped.

In the attached video below, the sound is quite amplified by my iPhone. The actual sound is far more subtle, but it is there. The crunching at the end of the video is just me pulling the hand brake to stop the car.

Does this sound familiar to anyone?

Have someone sit in the car and lightly depress the brake pedal. Does the noise go away?
