    tired of ya? not a chance. The booster assembly I got was from a company called waterloo tire company out of iowa. Kind of a mail order outfit. Any way the unit I bought stated it was for a 32 ford. But it was a universal style kit. Also make sure you get the dual booster and not the single unit. It will work better with the weight of your car. I found them looking through ebay for 32 ford. And there they were. Oh and also if you go the ebay route, scroll quite a ways through cause there pricing is all over the board. good luck...ghost

    personal opinion, you really don't need power brakes on that car.

    I have a 54 with a manual 78 corvette m/c underthe floor and it works great.
    (disc brakes in the front too) mount your m/c behind your stock one- hollow out your stock one- and run your push rod right thru your stock m/c to your new one behind it. pretty easy to do and it allows you to keep your stock pedals with out having to mess with them too much:)

    you could probably do the same with a small booster too.
    I personally feel that my car brakes just fine with out it though.

    I got a manual underfloor setup with a dual master that uses the stock pedal from ECI for my '53. It uses a mustang master cylinder for disc front drum rear. Works good and easy to install.

    If you're going to run the car LOW, don't use a booster. they usually hang below the frame rails. As the others have said, you really don't need one.

  10. I'm running a Vette M/C also. Made my own bracket lengthened the original brake rod. Not that hard to do. Todd
