The first place I'd look is at the calipers. If they haven't been rebuilt in 14 years, and the brake fluid hasn't been changed regularly, the piston can freeze up in the bore. I'd start there.

Do your rotor or rotors have surface rust on either of them looking like the pads are not being compressed on them? Right after a drive that is.
