Hey Guys, I'm new here but not entirely new to Mustangs.
I have a 1965 GT convert A code with a bench front seat.

I bought the car 28 years ago when I was 15. It was a basket case. While restoring it I found out it was a GT, or at least it seems to have every indications it was a GT. I lost interest in the car for several years simply because it was too nice to drive. I don't want to brag but it was pretty nice and I didn't want my kids in it. I have now decided that I am going to drive it as my oldest is taking an interest in cars. The master cyl is leaking and I would like to replace it but I cannot figure out which one it is suppose to have in it. It has factory front disc brakes and currently has the single reservoir screw on lid master. Is this correct? I cannot see myself putting the wrong master in it put when I look at replacements they say this master was for drum brake cars. Like I said it has been years since I have done anything with the car but with all the car shows I have been to I cannot see that I would have gotten away with the wrong master?

I have rebuilt the motor and also need a couple of 65 dated exhaust manifolds if anyone knows where I might find some.

My 2¢...

Regardless of what is "correct", I'd strongly suggest upgrading to a dual reservoir system for safety's sake.

Nope. Correct master cylinder is a large bowl with a clip on lid. 15/16" bore size.

+1 - I did the same thing...

I have had to use the emergency brake when a front wheel cylinder blew out. I would recommend upgrading to a dual cylinder master cylinder to enjoy that kind of thrill.

kdgoff

Excuse me avoid that kind of thrill.

When you upgrade to the dual, do you still use the proportioning valve? I would think not but wanted to check.

kdgoff

You will need a new proportioning valve because the current one is designed for a single input line.

You should also invest in a brake line switch which will close the brake line to one of the sets should that brake line fail. This also has an electrical switch built in that connects to brake light on the dash to let you know that one circuit has failed.

Thanks
I'd like to do all the upgrades for safety's sake but at the end of the day it will be looking a lot different than stock won't it?
