Hello, I am totally new to forums, but I will give it my best shot. I bought a 1980 Chevette yesterday for $500. I've been in love with this type of car for a while, so it was completely an impulse buy. It runs and doesn't seem to have anything obviously wrong with it for $500. I bought it to play with and fix up. However, I'm no mechanic. I cannot find the brake fluid reservoir anywhere from looking under the hood. I will get under it later, but it seems like its normally right there near the firewall... little white tank with a black cap stating the type of brake fluid to use. Am I crazy or blind? The brakes are really slow to respond, so maybe they need to be bled or it needs a new master cylinder, but I don't even know where to start because I don't know where to look. I'm ordering a manual today, but I thought I'd start with some forums for advice. Thanks.

Welcome to the forum. Snapped a couple of pictures of mine, also a 1980. If you have power brakes you'll have a booster behind yours. Front view (it's right in the middle of the pic) Looking from the drivers side (just to the left of the shock beside the clutch cable hidden under some emissions equipment and vacuum lines) And finally exposed. I just realized how disgusting my car looks in these pictures. I might need to pull the engine just to paint.

Like he posted, the master cylinder is metal on these cars. Pry the wire holding the cap on with a screwdriver, and then remove the cap.

Ok, great! I thought that's where it should be, but it just looks different. I ordered my manual! Thanks! I am excited to learn about this car. Yours looks just like mine. I will post some pics as I go along.
