rear brake grabbing
what would cause the rear brake to grab? I have a 1972 T and I was driving today on the highway and then when entering back to town I came up on a stop light and it felt like that I had a flat tire. I couldn't pull off the road immediately so continued on to the next light and the same thing when I put the brake on to slow down. I pulled over to discover that I didn't have a flat but my rim on the rear drivers side was hot. After letting everything cool off I continued home and had no more problems. I checked the brake fluid and was about three quarters of an inch low so I filled it up and put the car in its stall. What could be wrong? I have had this car about 2 years and only twice have I had to put brake fluid in it?

You should not be losing brake fluid ever. My guess your leaking fluid onto your pads, causing the lockups. Do not drive the car until you fix this. You are a brake failure/accident waiting to happen.
