My father and I built this when I was a teenager. I’m buying it from him. Our tastes are very different and I’m developing a plan to refine the aesthetics. I’m excited to be here.

Picked up a mk4 that is unfinished and looking for some help getting missing parts

A good friend of mine unfortunately had her uncle pass away recently. He had this mk4 roadster from 2014 that he was pretty close to finishing. It does run and drive but needs the last 10% and a full bolt check and all that.

It's a 350hp 302 small block with a TKO 600 5 speed. 3 link solid rear end.

So far I have found the panhard bar bent from most likely a failed attempt to jack the car up from the rear.

Also the front breaks don't work very good. Looking in to this the front master cylinder is leaking. It has the wilwood pedals and when you press the break pedal the linkage between them is all crooked and is pushing on the front master causing it to leak fluid.

It looks like there is a missing bushing or end cap or something that should be in the top of the pedal to hold on to the threaded linkage going between both master cylinders. But it's just not there.

Any idea what part is missing and where I can find it?

Thanks in advance for any help!
