    I'm trying to ID the master cylinder on my old race car so that if and when I get it apart and can't rebuild it I can find another. It's 1 and 1/8 bore and is aluminum and is made by Wagner Lockheed and says Made in the USA on the side. Any help would be appreciated. This is in a modified Roadster (altered)that was built in the late 50s to early 60s . 20221024_131700.jpg 20221024_131644.jpg 20221024_131652.jpg 20221021_155627.jpg

    Well that's exactly it a Willy's / Jeep master cylinder from about 1950 to 51. Thanks all I'm going to try and see if I can locate some parts if this one doesn't come apart after some soaking

    Brian, you might think about having yours sleeved to a smaller size, like 1" for better braking. Just a thought.

    i may be wrong, but the first thing that came to mind was the mico master cylinder. they were very popular in the '70s.
