I saw this posted elsewhere on the 'net ...... when this happened I was sitting a mere 10 miles away ...... you don't see a double-action feature like this everyday: a 2002 chasing a plane in the fast lane .....

Ah, Malaysia, great place !!
A year after I bought my '74tii I got lucky and scored an all-expense-paid vacation to this place. A wonderful Christmas Day in 1975, enjoying ice-cold Coors beer on the beach !!

Doing a "master cylinder refurb" ...... piece of cake.
With that said, I've done only one on my '74tii (and several on my '48 Chevy truck).
I was exceptionally lucky on the '74tii for 2 huge reasons:
1) I was able to easily find a master cylinder rebuild kit. (I've heard rumors they are now no longer available.)
2) there was no pitting in the cylinder bore. Just some clean-up effort with 2,000-grit sandpaper cleaned out the crud.

when your favorite mechanic downsizes his shop and no longer wants to do oil changes for you, and wants to make the task easier for you to accomplish .......

the picture above that layers posted of the burnt-out 2002: I'm told by Norm Manchen that the picture is from a completely different fire and was posted by a news network as "stock" footage, and therefore not an actual Camp Fire photo.
With that said, what a tragedy with so much total loss of everything by so many people.

My memory thinks that high strength bolts are necessary for this application ......
--- Something like a metric Grade 10.9 or better ??
--- I don't know if Grade 8.8 is good enough ??
