brakes

Does the '71 240 have power brakes? What your car is doing sounds suspiciously like what happens when the power booster has a vacuum leak in the internal diaphragm.

Not for sure, i didnt get a chance to work on the car this weekend.

Then I would certainly look at that booster. First make sure it's getting vacuum, then check to see if there's a hissing sound when the brakes are being applied.
