    no mate it shouldn't just disappear. i'd be checking wheel cylinders if you have a drum rear end. if not it could be your master cylinder leaking back into your booster.

    secret places for brake fluid to go are
    1. leaking inside the rear drums, then being eveporated before you see it on the outside
    2. leaking into the booster
    3. sometimes you can get a leak that tracks down from the booster, or from the clutch master, under the carpet, which then has a good time rusting out your floor. It can also trickle down and into the crack between the bulkhead and the chassis rail.
