Could be, Trevor. The rebuilt MC for my Midget was so inexpensive that I
didn't even consider rebuilding the one in the car. Plus, the reservoir on
the one that came with the car was dented and I wanted it to look better.
However, Bill seemed to indicate that he was a novice at repairing his car in
the original post, so rather than attempt a rebuild and bugger it up if the
bore is scored and not worth rebuilding, I think he is better off just
replacing it.
And, BTW, sandwiches are cheaper in the States!
