Leon,

Looks great.

How do you go about reconditioning the original brake and clutch master cylinders?

Do you just put a kit through them, or is it possible to re-sleeve them?

I take it the metal reservoirs have been zinc plated?

Regards

Edward

 :)G Day and thanks Alex and Garry for your interest.
Yes that's right Eddy regarding the brake and clutch master cylinders.
The tins were zinc plated and the original cylinders were re-sleeved with stainless steel sleeves and a new kit.
When you have this done its better than it was.
Still keeping the  original cylinders. ;)

Thanks for the response.

Who do you use to reco the master cylinders?

Also, have you ever had a VH24 booster reconditioned? That is the one with the alloy construction.
