Master Cylinder Protection Cover / Shroud -Who else has one?

[cunning plan]

I am wondering who else has one of these protection covers?

My bus is a '68 and does not have one, so when I test-mounted the master cylinder, I was surprised how exposed it is to dirt, debris and potential damage. I then remembered the picture above.

So, I am thinking of adding one in at some point, maybe even made of plastic and easily removable... Not sure, I will have to think about it in detail..

I am curious who else has one, or if they all have one and my bus has had it removed at some point. Please mention if you have one and the year of your bus.

Cheers!

my 68 has one, the front wheel used to catch on it on full lock after it was lowered

My 69 has one, which is held on by two bolts I think.

Cheers guys.

Trying to establish if this was a factory-standard fixing for all years or just a certain few.

Anyone else?

It was a factory fitted item, 1969MY onwards.
Cut mine off after lowering, narrowing and notching.
