Put some pictures up, it would be easier to say. Here is a vehicle that is a State away from you that is way over priced in my opinion.

Most go for about half that in decent shape, if 100e vehicles interest you it would be well worth your time to join ford100e.com you will not regret it

That clutch master is a very common part found on a lot of English cars, I would be inclined to just rebuild or replace it just to keep it simple. As far as Facebook goes I have never used it before but you should be able to get pics up soon I would think. Happy welding. _________________ Anglia 100e modified

U might be right I'm not new to cars but I'm new to the English cars it's a differnt bird I know it's bad but took me 15 min to find the hood latch lol my whole plans at first was to cut it up make a hot rod with v8 5 speed but more I look at it more I like the lil 4 popper tried starting it today can't get points to spark cleaned them might need a coil it looks a lil rough i guess a 12 volt coil from a 6 cyl should work to see if it will fire it does turn over and all lights work o and I figured out u pull the start button not push lol thank u guys for the help ford currie M/C will fit for brakes |

The master cylinder in the above eBay listing is correct for the car. The slant mounted one will not work. You can get new ones from Kip Motor in Dallas. _________________ Bayless

Kip does seem to have a lot of stock but their prices are quite high. Wilwood too have compatable cylinders _________________ Anglia 100e modified
