Brake master cylinder

I am replacing both master cylinders on a 289 cobra. Removed the top master cylinder, but not sure how to reach the bottom bolt on the lower master cylinder. Any suggestions are appreciated.

Ram,

Is the car an original AC Cobra? or a replica?

If its a replica...what brand...of the brands...is the body/frame setup as a
427" or 289" ?

Get real specific and there will be some helpful responses.

It is an original 289 AC Cobra and has the Girling brake master cylinders. I was able to remove the top master cylinder and the top bolt on the bottom master cylinder. Cannot reach the bottom bolt. Not sure if the box that encloses the brake and clutch pedals has to rermoved or if there is another option.
Thanks
