[Tigers] Clutch mystery

Perfect timing, of course.  I've driven it every couple weeks all summer,
no problems.  But I was getting it ready to go to a show tomorrow, the
first one of the year.  I pushed it out of the garage, checked all the
fluids, the tire pressures, washed the windshield...

And then I went to start it.  The clutch pedal went straight to the floor,
little resistance.  That's new.   I pumped it a few times and it started to
feel more like normal. No leaks on the ground, no fluid missing when I
rechecked the reservoir.  I have the stock master and slave with silicon
fluid.  I'm thinking its master rebuild time.

 Any other thoughts out there?

So much for mini British car day at Larz Anderson.  No way I'm committing
to a 45 minute drive into Brookline with a questionable clutch.  And
there's no way to turn up a master rebuild kit this afternoon.
