Re: [Amc-list] 69 Rambler brake booster

[Wrambler242@xxxxxxxxxxx]

Me either!
No power here!
I run 82-83 Concord discs and manual master.
I don't care much for vague or touchy power brakes.
Some are nice and modern cars I drive are fine, I do not feel the need to muck about and mess up something I am happy with!

  Tha Ambassador will get stock booster and I'll work from that point, It's bit of a different animal than the American.
