Default Volvo 140 brakes

This thread has been long dormant despite urgency implied at the beginning: it would be nice to have had feedback....

Here's mine: after trying all the known Volvo spares outlets (in the UK, Sweden and the USA even) I gather master cylinder repair kit #273076 is no longer available. This is listed for cars pre 1972. The only one available is #273226, being for post '72 cars. However, replacement cylinders are available, at about £90, from the usual sources.

However, I have just been told that an ebay trade seller in the west of England can supply a kit for the earlier cars for about £25, so being somewhat frugal my order is being processed right now.... I'll keep you posted as to its success, as I've just fitted my spare cylinder/servo, so thats no longer available to the original wanter now - tough.

Citizen A: if there is ever a response re cylinder offered, as its for a newer car than mine, its yours if offered!
