grumpin Posted July 12, 2021 Share Posted July 12, 2021 Looks amazing! If you weren't keeping it all stock I'd urge you to go with the later master cylinder with the aluminum body and plastic reservoir. They don't rust nor leak, and you don't have to pull the cover off to see if you need to fill them. Nice job! Ive been thinking of getting one of these for a vise. https://smile.amazon.com/Pro-Grade-59105-Hitch-Mount-Plate/dp/B074CQFH5W/ref=sr_1_2?dchild=1&keywords=Pro-Grade+59105+Hitch+Mount+Vise+Plate&qid=1626112892&sr=8-2 I don’t have room in my small garage/shop for a vise, but every vehicle I have has a hitch.

I thought about that one before but a lot of times I am doing things that will get crap all over the car. I was also considering making a tree stump vise stand. Sometimes I don't like a bunch of crap flying all over the garage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dang - what's the deal with the key? That should be easy enough, I would think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have seen keys be manually duplicated because of this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a small workbench but found a place to have a small vise. https://www.amazon.com/Keter-Folding-Workbench-Sawhorse-Capacity/dp/B001CWX26Y/ref=sr_1_2?crid=20065ENIV0AI7&dchild=1&keywords=keter+folding+work+table&qid=1626183388&s=hi&sprefix=keter+%2Ctools%2C180&sr=1-2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
