Lockheed glass brake fluid reservoir


Matthew Spielberg
 



I am calling upon the unlimited knowledge in the Arcane group brain.
Does anyone have any experience with the glass brake fluid bottle mounted on the Lockheed brake master cylinder or similar. I know that they used it on some French cars, but my local Facel dealer is currently out of stock.

Does anyone know what other cars it might have been used on? Threaded top and threaded bottom.

Early Citroen ID19 - the cheap version - had glass reservoirs, and all my Panhards have that ubiquitous black reservoir - I might have a spare if I can find it, or take it off a parts car.in Sac.  Should be same as many '50s cars - think my '59 NSU Prtinz Iii be glass also -

Thanks Ken 
The master is going back to White Post. The bottle is weeping fluid at the bottom, and sucking air, turning the brake fluid milky from the air in the system
