My brake master cylinder was leaking fluid back into the pedal box and was really really spongy on the few drives it went on. So since after spending close to 2 hours calling dozens of automotive stores I finally contacted the manufacturer who makes the rebuild kit for the cylinder, and they had of course discontinued it. So what was going to be a $20 part became a $225 rebuild to White Post Restorations in Virginia (http://www.whitepost.com/). I will say though that while it's expensive you get what you pay for it. The cylinder came right out of the box powder-coated, with the fitting re-tapped, all new seals and dust cover. It literally bolted on, we bled it and my brakes were rock hard. Plus any cylinder they rebuild comes with a lifetime warranty and you have any problem they'll rebuild it again for free.
