I'd like some input from you more experienced sprideteers about the
advisability and success of rebuilding the brake and clutch master
cylinder, slave cylinder, and rear wheel cylinders. My '72 Midget has been
sitting in the garage for the past three years awaiting the engine
compartment repainting, which I've finally gotten around to. (All my free
car time and money the past few years has gone into my '67 Midget vintage
race car.) Now I want to put the street/show car back together and I want
to have a reliable braking system. Replacing everything with new stuff at
today's prices is extremely expensive. I have no experience with rebuilding
the hydraulics, but it doesn't seem to be too difficult. Any tips,
experiences, and warnings would be greatly appreciated.
