Re: WTB nice 3/4 ton brake booster w original zinc coloring
I recently bought a cardone reman booster, and popped the covers, had them Zink plaited, and re-assembled. I was surprised at how easy it was. Turned out great, and looks original. Plaiting cost $40. May be an alternative if you do not find one.

I checked with him before I did mine. He said he was closing shop and not taking new orders.

I had no idea. Steve definitely did great work. I hope the new owners will follow in his footsteps.

I may have missed it, but, who did yours? My guy went out of business.

I just used a local plating shop to plate the covers once I took them off.

Re: WTB nice 3/4 ton brake booster w original zinc coloring
This was a booster setup that I got out of the southwest for my 72 build, but sold all my trucks. It is a little faded but the patina with no rust is nice. I am enclosing a pic of an NOS master cylinder to complete the setup. The booster setup is $100 plus shipping and $250 with the master cylinder. Thanks for looking!

CAN'T Upload Pics. Waiting for Administrator reply!

Re: WTB nice 3/4 ton brake booster w original zinc coloring
52napco - When I installed my 4bbl carb I had to switch the stock 11" brake booster to a 9" to clear the new carb. The original booster with bracket still has the zinc coloring and should clean up well. It's out of a 69 C10 w/250 inliner if that makes a difference. I'm in Walhalla, close enough to you for you to take a look at it. If you like it and can use it, it's yours.
Ken
