[T3] Master Cylinders Wanted!

I occasionally get requests from people who are looking for good 
master cylinders, either for a tandem upgrade, or to replace one that 
is beyond repair. I usually ask that they send me their old one, so I 
can make sure it can't be saved, but over the years I've used up all 
my old cores. I'm down to my last 2, and they are bad enough that I'm 
not comfortable sending them out to anyone.

I would like to be able to continue providing this service, but 
without cores, my hands are tied. So now the call goes out.

I need master cylinder cores. I'll pay the shipping if you'll mail 
them to me. What I'm mostly looking for are the late style tandem 
MCs, either from '67 or '70-73. I can't use the '68-9 versions that 
have the over/under double barrels. I could use a couple of the 
single circuit ones, but there's little demand for those.

If you have these lying around, for the record you should know that 
just sitting, even in a dry basement, these will rust internally in a 
few years enough to ruin them.

Let me know what you have, and I'll promise to put them to good use.

Reduce, reuse, recycle. This is the best way to do all three. ;-)

thanks,
