Paul, The Master cylinder could have been replaced by an NOS unit in which the seals may have been bad after 20 + years of sitting. I do make new seals and sell them with a life warranty, but if the cylinder is good then the seals should last for years. The leaking is going into the carpet pad. The master isn't hard to change but the slave is a little harder.

Is it relatively easy? The Slave cylinder and clutch was replaced in 2004 by the previous owner.
