Yep. If it's been neglected, which this one has, unfortunately.

To the master cylinder, yes it's possible. The rear drum cylinders go bad
because nobody changed the fluid annually and there is corrosion in them.

They are. It's possible your hubs are bent. A competent mechanic with a
dial gauge should be able to determine that very quickly.

I'm not sure if it's possible for rust to build up on your hubs the way it
can on a Civic, but if it can, the rotor will sit off-kilter, causing
vibration whether or not they machine it afterwards.
