Cheers to Lynn & Terry!

From info supplied, and photo/s to come, I think we are in business. I have never actually seen that particular part......in real life. If I had the forethought to do so, I could have asked to peek under the skirt of any number of Ford CMPs at shows, but I never gave a moments consideration to the topic. It's hard to think straight when salivating at well restored MVs anyway.

Must be about time I filled the master cylinder and bled the brake system too. Buying brake fluid is on my to do list for this Saturday. Also spoke with a lubricants supplier a number of weeks ago, about a higher viscosity substitute for diffs & gear cases that he recommended. He feels it may be a better proposition for older applications where parts have some wear. Not cheap stuff, but could be a good option, particularly with added benefit of quietening any whine. So they say.
