1952 88 Brake problem

I did a bad thing.... I misplaced my old brake master cylinder after removing it and ordering a new one.

I have two problems: The new MC has no clevis (the whole threaded piece) and the cap on the other end where the hard lines connect.

Does anyone have these? Does anyone have a part number or at least a photo to help me?

The brakes are the last thing this car needs to be road worthy again, for the first time in over 10 years. Thanks in advance for your help!

www.oldbuickparts.com list a MC cap on their site for $11. Lots of parts on Buick, Pontiac,and Cadillac would interchange with Olds. check and see if it looks correct . Sorry,I misread ,the cup over the threaded Rod is what you were needing. Looks like Fusicks master cylinder and also FS Planet's both come with those parts. Larry

Thanks, Larry - I took a look, and neither had what I'm looking for. In fact, I called Fusick and explained in detail what I needed, and he told me they don't carry anything like that. You see, they expect the owner to be smart enough to make sure he has all the pieces before chucking the old one! smh

If anyone has any specs on the clevis OR the fitting for the hard lines, I'd appreciate it. Thanks!
