i don't recall ever seeing a painted master cylinder back in the day. why would they be painted? if any dot 3 fluid, and i think that's all there was, was spilled on them the paint would be gone.
Many cars had painted master cylinders. This is correct for my '70 B body with PDBs;

Me thinks not, I've never saw a original pre 1971 Mopr that had a painted M.C., slant six, to hemi cars My 1970 V code Charger R/T with a SCP date of 10-29-1969 had a plan old non painted M.C. like yours with power disc brakes Same thing on many 340,383, 440 U and V codes B and E bodies as well as several slant six Chargers I saw back in the day The old brake fluid will weep through the cast iron and make the paint sluff off, the paint falling onto the exhaust manifold can cause a fire ![](/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shruggy.gif)

Sorry but you're wrong. I'll go through my pics for survivors but I've researched '70 'Bees for a decade now (especially Lynch Rd. cars) and I can tell you that they came painted.

SOOO!!!, Was the pre 1970 A body disk brake M/C painted? I've' seen black and cast color. For me the brake fluid is not an issue in that I use DOT 5 silicone.

Close, but it is a non-Hemi 2229171 1970 E-body power disc master cylinder. The Hemi cars (E&B), used the 191 and it had a piston retention bolt in the bottom.
