Master Cylinder cover needed
« on: June 09, 2010 - 08:57:43 AM »
My cover I have now is an ugly black that was painted from the other owner, does anyone have a cover for sale or where I can get one that is stock looking in the goldish color they are anodized in?

For a 70 Cuda 340 with power disc brakes. thanks!

The booster, master cylinder and cover are supposed to be spray bombed black in 1970.  They were sprayed as an assembly.  If you don't want to go that route and if your cover is in good shape...not dented or pitted...you can strip the paint and have it replated.  I need to find a nice one too.  The ones I have are all pitted.

Did not know that, well then I am good to go! Brakes work perfect and I have seem some of the Hemi cars in that gold-cad color and thought mine was wrong.


thanks!

PS do you have a picture? My cover has no pits in her.....

again thank you so much!:)

Little late on this , but in the future get a gallon of gunk carb solvent at your local store and soak the cover. It will clean it nice without harming the finish. Then you could rebuild a few carb's with it...
