I am curious whether any one knows of an aftermarket or donor non-power dual master cylinder which would mount in stock location. I don't mind nonpower brakes it is just a little worrisome not to have dual system. (Expecially without working parking brake!) | | |

On the AD pickups, the bracket is very simple, and I know some of the guys on this site have made their own.
I believe the consensus on the best MC donor is a '69 Mustang, with the biggest plus being that the residuals are built-in.
Chevy Duty's bracket is in the neighborhood of $100, and I think allows for a mid-70s Chevy sedan MC to bolt on. Not sure if the 'Stang MC will fit on it or not.

His m/c also had built in residuals. I was suprised to see such a big car for its era to not have power brakes, esp since it had factory A/C | | |
