You can upload pictures through the 'member control panel', then 'file manager'. 

I think the type of master cylinder is not much of a problem, as long as it works. My Pacer had a manual brakes master cylinder on it, though the car has front discs. After the master cylinder broke down after a while, I put on the 'correct'one, meant for discs. 

The previous owner build the car out of probably 3 different Pacers, the brake system being 75/76, the rest of the car mainly 78. That gives me a hard time finding the correct parts, if I don't know what year that part of the car is...

I would think it shouldn't be that hard finding your part, as long as you know what year it's from.

I was looking at the scans from the parts book and I realized that I don't understand something. Some model years are listed with a slash after it, some aren't, and some are listed as two years with a slash between. what does that mean?

Sorry, don't know. I think a picture of the part you need would help a lot tracking it down. Part numbers rarely pop up on the internet is my experience. Something else, just curious, how is your Pacer otherwise? Does it run?

Well, I found the part! I contacted Doug at American Parts Depot and I bought the part today. I also ordered a bunch of other brake parts and other parts from Rockauto and Amazon. I'll post again when I get it. Thanks for everyone's input.
