The 'G' looking logo, off an old kit car, not sure where to get a replacement.

Thanks for anything, you can throw my way.

G is for Girling I think.

maybe a motor factor could trace via part number.

A quick Google gets you this:



But it's the number off the master cylinder you need, as knowing that it's a Girling is not going to help.

Hi, tried the Girling website, and put numbers in the search, with no luck.

I put some more photos in the PH Kit Car forum, as a guy there might have one.

It seems the numbers are casting numbers, not part numbers (if i read the+ artical correct).

From just looking at the logo, perhaps it would be more suited to the International Society for Slippery Handjobs?

You really needed the plastic strap that would have been looped around the cylinder between the reservoir connections for the full detail of what it was.

However - what kit car? Might be able to suggest the donor car and hence who to go to talk about replacements.

Cheers Bri, it's a Spartan, cortina (mk 3 based, we think).

I have put more photos on the kit car forum, should you like to look, i would
have put them here aswell, but these things take me ages, and don't always work, lol.

Had the reservoir spring a leak on my kit car last year, just took the master cylinder complete to a local parts supplier, not Half rods, and at a glance he told me what it was from. In my case Sierra and IIRC replacement was around £80
