Very nice Johann!

Do you still need those Parts we talked about?
I can give them to Prestone if you want.

Fantastic. Any chance you could post a picture of the brake booster installation? Your booster in the picture of the sandblasted parts looks like a couple I have that I was told were for a halftrack (a very late style?).

This mount (hydrovac) is french mount after war

The hydrovac is US type but french set to mount this hydorvac not the original one.

french army made a set like the picture

The one i put on halftrack is a new made . very easy to put on halftrack but expensive ...

I'm interested in seeing how you mounted your brake booster as well.

You don't need to drill more "hole" ,just use original hole for the original hydrovac , and use french mount come from the set .

Thanks for posting picture of your booster set-up.  That really helps me understand what you did.
