Pulling on my memory banks here. I remember working on a 1941 Chevy car about 30 years ago.( pretty sure it was a Chevy,definitly GM) Had to replace the master cylinder for a customer. Weird thing was the clutch pedal pivoted through the master cylinder housing! Even back then, those engineers were trying to make life miserable for the mechanics.
