I am going with disc brakes all around, so if there are original brake parts that you are looking for I may have them. Used, of course, but I have nearly all the original drum brake parts. What do you need?

I need a power brake master cylinder for a 1962 Skylark. Any help?

My Special has standard brakes, not power assisted. However, according to 1962 Buick Shop Manual there is no difference between the master cylinders on power brake vs non-power brake cars. That being said, you are welcome to my used master cylinder if you would like it.

Looks like I was wrong in stating that power brake and standard brake master cylinders are identical. A closer reading of the shop manual under the power brakes section points out one difference: "The master cylinder assembly is the same as the standard brake master cylinder except for the piston stop plate and should be so serviced." However, the section covering rebuilding the standard brake master cylinder says to "Remove rubber boot. Remove lock ring, then remove push rod with stop plate." This would seem to indicate that simply removing the stop plate and reassembling without it would transform a standard master cylinder into a power brake master cylinder. If you are still interested I could mail the master cylinder to you for the cost of the postage.
