I agree!! We donated the pristine original to a high quality concourse resto effort, and installed a repop - I want Ben to drive the wheels off this thing!! To be honest, I thought the repop look pretty good.

One thing to know is a little tip from Jed P here in PA, the receptacle on the face of the booster is too long - probably for multiple applications, and thus it effectively maintains constant brake pressure. This is a small bakelite type of item, and it must be ground flush to prevent the brakes from overheating....
