Just went to drive the TR3 Friday and saw something shinny on the rubber floor matt on the driver side. First thought was water but upon closer inspection it was brake fluid. The seal on the clutch master cylinder went bad and the fluid leaked out. I'll order a new kit Tuesday but I been thinking of replacing the reservoir too.
When I first did the car back in the late 70's I seem to remember it being rusty and pulling off chrome in sheets. I sand blasted it and painted it chrome aluminum. Over the years the brake fluid ruined the finish and is now very unsightly.
At many car shows I remember seeing chrome reservoirs and my recollection of mine is that it was chrome. I see Moss just came out with a re-engineered reproduction Gerling reservoir and it is black and they say quote "great attention to detail that keeps it looking period-correct and authentic looking".
What is correct? Thanks!
