I will look for that master today, I got sidetracked parting out a drag bike and forgot I should be looking for that.

I do have one on the bike I am rebuilding so I know what to look for.

I found two of those 5/8" front masters in my "brake" box. One has been taken apart and one is complete. 

 

They are not gouged up or ever seen the pavement. Not sure what condition you need but they do need some work. The plastic on both is a bit discolored, not sure if there is a fix for that?

I know I need one for my C1 restoration.

For some reason it seems like I have way more rear masters than fronts.

I have one more place to look at but I can't get there till tomorrow, it has most of the parts for the C1. I want to be sure that one of those belongs to that bike or there could be another master in that parts bin??
That is the problem when projects sit too long, you can't remember whats in those bins!

Appreciate all of your time Injected! Here are a couple of quick pics of my C1. It’s in nice shape but does have some “patina”. I would be interested in anything you don’t need to keep.
