RE: [MarcosManiacs] Re: Brake upgrade for 84 Marcos
2004-07-09 by Garry Diver
First off thanks for the pix, I will be printing them off and
bringing them to my mechanic to see if he thinks he'll have any
problem installing it. It does appear that my pedal box cover (1984
Mantula US model) may have a smaller access panel than yours Neal.
The master cylinder looks exactly like the one I looked at in one of
our club members Morgan Plus 8. ; If the mechanic thinks he'll be
able to make it work I'll go with Garry's new part for the same
reason that you put a new one in a couple years ago.
Garry, If I give you the go ahead how long do you think it'll take
to get the part? I haven't bought from you B4, do you accept pay-pal
or credit cards, or do I send a check?
Thanks,
Paul
