63 Power Brake Booster

[Harry S.]

Just went to Mike Gibbons website and he does 64 and up boosters. Anyone know why he doesn't do 63 boosters? Anyone have another source?

My MC leaked into the booster, Oops.

Thanks

harry: years ago i had a similar problem with a 63 PB booster. needed the rubber diaphragm. went junk yarding and an early 60's buick riviera supplied the guts. the buick PB boomer's plastic filter is outboard just like a 63 PB booster.perhaps the buick holy group can supply the rubber diaphragm and related rebuild parts. good luck. mike

I used Karp's Boosters: http://www.karpspb.com/booster.htm
The supposedly "restored" 63 booster I bought of an auction site had not been rebuilt properly and Karp's straightened it out quickly and at a reasonable cost.

It was Bubba-ed pretty badly and Karps went "the extra mile" to get it right.

I ran with it for 5 years of hard driving and it worked perfectly when I sold the car last June.
