No because, unless it is a stock T that has been upgraded to disk brakes, Ts didn't have a master cylinder. Your roadster pu has been modified so, yours could be one of many different master cylinders used depending on the brake system.

Thanks

Ford had specific part numbers for master cylinders beginning in 1939 when they first started using them. The base number for a Ford master cylinder 2140 but the numeric or alpha numberic prefix will tell what it was designed to fit. The only reference to 1826 I can find is the 11-1826 that fits a VW rabbit.

Your vehicle has so much non stock stuff on it that you will be chasing stuff like this for a long time. The mix with Japanese design (and possibly German) parts is not going to help much. Don't assume that the car has Ford parts on it when it has a Nissan/Datsun powerplant.

Jerry, do you know what rear axle was used for your home brew T? If so, I would do some checking to see if the rest of the modified chassis parts came from that same vehicle.
