What's wrong with it to be committing the crime of scrap?

My ol' Dutchess. 1985 3.5 on carbs. Only 43,000 miles. Still goin' strong, but she has a mysterious flaw on the brakes. Most times they do, but too often they don't.

never been a problem cooling, standard viscous, plus twin speed control'd kenlowes never had to use them though as she never climbed over a quarter plus large oil cooler for engine. twin alternators and 3 heavy duty 1500 amp batterys plus 240 convertor. but like i said still
a lot more to do yet
