My 76 914 has been off the road for a couple of years, but I finally got it registered and started driving it again. But one of the barkes appears to be dragging a little, I'm not sure yet if its just one or both, I *think* its the rears but I'm not sure yet until later today I am gonna jack it up and check it out. I was just wondering if this is something common that happens and where I should look first to figure out what the problem is.

I just had the same problem with mine.
I stored it with the emergency brake on for about 4 months. The right rear caliper was sticking/tight. All I had to do to fix it was to readjust the allen screws on the caliper. I no longer store the car with the emergency brake on. I drove it over the weekend to Scotts Barbeque and so far so good..... |
