Marlin Roadster (Re)Build

Yes the reservoir is shallow but quite wide. I never thought about it before but you are probably right in that it is to clear the bonnet on the TR6.
It's interesting how all the bits from different marques fit one another. I guess there was a lot of plagiarism going on in those days. The servo also looks almost identical to the Metro one that the Sportster used - except the mounting studs are at different centres.

The car designers had a massive parts bin to chose from. Think how many marques fell under the "Leyland" banner in the end.
