'73 Bug (regular) How to get to Master Cylinder?

Hi, please help.
I have to replace the rusted-out tubing, but
how to get to the brake master cylinder?
There seem to be walls all around it.
Thanks. Alex

You have to remove the fuel tank to get to it - here's a good article:

Wide open access from the wheel well, and from the top too once you
remove the gas tank.
