A USA based MGA specialist has had the early Lockheed metal brake/clutch master cylinder caps re-manufactured (by a British company) which were also fitted to early Mini's before the later white plastic cap was introduced. They include the internal fibre washer, cotter pin and vent hole in the top. Price $7.95 each plus $6 min handling fee according to December Miniworld mag. Original items have been selling at some very 'premium' prices on ebay recently!
