I blead the brakes on my 1951 3800 yesterday and used my neighbors compressed air tank. That is the coolest way to bleed brakes -- no pedal pumping -- just move from one wheel to the other and the MC, done in no-time. I don't know if you can buy these tanks or not but they are about half the size of a BBQ propane tank, you add a quart of more of brake fluid, some compressed air and attach the hose via a cap fitting to your MC. Open the valve and presto the whole brake line network is pressurized and it keeps the MC filled to the brim. If anyone would like a picture of this unit I'll post it.
