I've got a 1952 MGTD. When I put her to bed last fall, the brakes were
fine. Now the peddle goes down to the floor. First step is to add brake
fluid, but I don't know what's in there now. Have seen plenty of cautions
about mixing fluid types. Any way of figuring out what's in there now?

TIA

Every one pretty much has given you good advise. But if the pedal goes to
the floor now, adding fluid may not solve the problem if it is low. If you
applied the brake pedal to a low MC you probably have air in the lines as
previously mentioned.

Look under the car around the bottom of the tires and see if there is any
fluid leak from a leaking wheel cylinder.
