Is this right?

funy way to brak a trailer
so you mean that is no good ? would lik to have tried one and see if it works always nice to buy ready-made stuff!
This is the original cylinder
Pr95 very kind of you, have not access to ebay.au have you any idea what it would cost for a cylinder and shipping + money to you ?? but do nothing until I have transferred the money to you, are a little unsure if it succeeds ...
Or where can I find a re-slaving kit?
The exhaust is bought from Finland , a NOS spare part.
And a pic on our new painted Bellett it vas yellow before...

My advice would be to talk to a Brake Repair or machine shop in your country and see if they can Stainless steel sleeve your cylinder, I don't think it comes as a kit but I am sure it wont be the first one they have done, and in my opinion would be the better way to go.
Our cars only have one master cylinder and manual clutch as they are right hand drive, and the distribution union is mounted on the inner guard and later models on the firewall.
You have done a nice job on the restoration. Looks great.

I found a company that could fix a re-slaving in Malmo ( near where I live ), but it costs 521 EUR ... quite expensive I think.
No response from Dick but hoping for answers soon !

Wow!!!
At that price it would be cheaper to post it to me, I can get it done for approx $100 Aud [70 Euro] (I have a close family friend that does it for fulltime business) then post it back.
Even if it was $200 Aud it would still work out cheaper
I get my slave cylinders done for about $80 Aud each so a master can't be much more if any.
And he is very good at it as Rolls Royce send him their cylinders from the UK for him too do. He has a very good reputation.
He does have about a 2-3 week waiting list though as he is always VERY busy.

I'll continue to look for someone who can do it cheaper.
And a little fun too, I drove my Bellett to work today

it has a column lock like late models. Probably from a late model by the look of it.

You can atleast go and buy one, so it's not here, we must find the master cylinders that do not exist...

Most of us here get them re-sleeved in stainless steel. Its not super cheap but should last 'forever'. Mine is below, looks like new now.
Most of the other internal parts can be found locally.
Merry Christmas
