Ford had specific part numbers for master cylinders beginning in 1939 when they first started using them. The base number for a Ford master cylinder 2140 but the numeric or alpha numberic prefix will tell what it was designed to fit. The only reference to 1826 I can find is the 11-1826 that fits a VW rabbit.

Your vehicle has so much non stock stuff on it that you will be chasing stuff like this for a long time. The mix with Japanese design (and possibly German) parts is not going to help much. Don't assume that the car has Ford parts on it when it has a Nissan/Datsun powerplant.
