I'm doing the brakes (front to back, master cyl, lines, etc...) on my '58 Chev C60 Viking 2 ton dump truck. The Hydrovac brake booster is shot - anyone know where I can get a new one?
Thanks a million,

Their price was about half of what a rebuilt unit at the parts store would have been.

Karps called me today after e-mailing last night. GREAT guys and I'm sending the Hydrovac to be completely rebuilt for $199... well worth it for me - no time with 6 kids and a beautiful spring here in N. MN.
Thanks again for steering me to Karps,
Cheers, Wooley | | |
