The brake booster in my 69 Charger 440 drum brake car is shot. I have looked at what I consider all the normal places but I am having a hard time finding what I want which is an origninal appearing brake booster. This is the right style booster but I'd like for it to have the proper cadmium coating if possible without breaking the bank:
Napa booster

If I could, I'd get it with the master cylinder too as I am sure that replacing it would not be a bad idea. This booster has the same master cylinder as what is on my car, but the booster is different:
Booster with master cylinder on ebay

This second one looks like a nice kit. It appears to be what would have originally come on the car (plating/coatings are correct) but the booster is different than what is on my car. Every time I "color outside of the lines" and get something that isn't what was there before I end up wishing I had waited to find an exact replacement...

If anyone knows where I can find the booster in the first link with the master shown in the second link please send me a PM or just respond via this thread.

Just get your original one rebuilt, and stop worrying about getting a store bought rebuilt one.
Send it out to Booster Dewey.
