If you need a whole assembly. let me know. I just recently picked up
a N.O.S. brass bodied unit including the switch that I won't really ever be
using.
It's just collecting dust here now. In the VB catalog ist's listed as p/n 7-430.
WOAH! $329 list! I had no idea! Fist up to '76 models
I let it go for what I paid for it. $175 including the new electricla switch.
(plus shipping of course)

Are you speaking of the brass junction that splits the lines and also holds
the brake failure switch? I hope not! If this part has been removed and you
do not have it in a parts box...Moss sells it for about $500. I think this
is the most expensive little part I've seen! If you don't have it, check
with the list or the Spridets list (Spridgets@autox.team.net). YOu mention a
piston frozen...Are you refering to the Brake Master Cylinder? If so, you
can pick them up,new, for about $150-$180.
Do you have the Bentley Manual on the 1500 Midget? I do recommend it but if
not, I'll check mine tonight and send you another email.
If your not on the Spridets list, I highly recommend it. Don't get me
wrong...there is a WEALTH of knowledge on this list as well!
Good luck,
