Under floor brake reservoir. Thats how it use to be done before swing pedals and firewall mounted master cylinders.

The 3rd photo is my 73 CJ5 . Is the cover a holdover (like the side tank indentation) or do I have a tub thats older than 73?
The rest of the rig seems to have been built from spare parts.

My 73 had the same cover. I think it was a remnant from earlier times.

hahhaha....you nailed it. I've read articles about jeeps leaving the factory with one off engines/Transmission /axle combos during the years where the company changed hands several times.

Ive got a 73 and that plate is there also.

What I should have said is POs spare parts
It has a AMC 304 with an adapter to (ford?) T-98 , an AMC20 rear end, and a d-35 front with disc brakes.
