"56 power brake reservoir! (AGAIN)

[Roadhog1951]

I know this has been discussed many times before but has anyone come up with replacement reservoir for a '56 with power brakes??

The Mr Gasket reservoir can be made to fit in the same spot with flat stock and a drill motor.

What Mr. Gasket reservoir?

The only problem is a one way check valve but you just have to reroute the vacuum lines. Ideally any coffee can will work, too, if it's sealed and has a barb fitting on it. I just found this the easiest to work with. 

 

What's wrong with your current tank?

I may have a spare tank. Would rather sell it with the master though. Like Ben said, what's wrong with your tank?

I'm needing the aluminum FLUID reservoir,,, not the vacuum canister! Sorry for the confusion.

Ouch! Without buying a new master cylinder, you could always try tapping the master cylinder and putting a plastic reservoir on the fender with a rubber hose... or make one out of steel tubing and tap it to fit the old cap.

I had mine made on a Cnc machine. Perfect repo. Cost me 200$ or so.
