Power Brakes for drum brakes
Power Brakes for drum brakes
I understand that a 64 comet could have had an option for power brakes (drum) How hard is it to find a good one. Thanks
Re: Power Brakes for drum brakes
POP's 64 comet came with power drum brks...I done away with the power part yrs ago,,,the booster may still be around here...don't know how good it might be...worked good when I removed it...just have to look for it...

Why did you do away. With it?
Re: Power Brakes for drum brakes
My comet came with pwr brks,pwr steering,AT and AC,,the 1st time I re-did it,,me and son put it back just like factory,,,AND it was the most boreing car I'd ever drove,I hated it,I even offered to my grd parents free of charge to drive to church,so little by little I started changing things trying to make it more fun to drive,,I added 2 4 carbs,stall converter shift kit in the trans,gears in the rear end,,it was nothing I cared to drive,I took it to car shows on a trailer,,,,,so I gathered up everything factory correct right down to correct bolts nuts and washers to change to a 4spd and do away with the grd ma car,and that included pwr brks and steering and I didn't want AC in it,,AND I've never looked back since...POP is an old street racer and a old hot rodder,,that comet with pwr this and pwr that and AT did not fill the bill with me..been driving it for way over 20 plus yrs..been on 2 pwr tours and in several states and many many miles,,,so that's the reason I done away with pwr brks….what ever OL POP drives has to be fun ….now at 70 yrso ,have gave thought to digging out the AC and putting it back in..( mainly for GLENDA)….I use to have everything I removed ,,but not for sure,,thank you and good luck with your comet......poprhtopdown wrote:Why did you do away.

Re: Power Brakes for drum brakes
AC would go (back) on first here too...even before carpet or arm rests!!!
Re: Power Brakes for drum brakes
It would be parked or sold or donated to a shop class at some HS BEFORE anything other then AC was to ever go back on it...and no more then it's driven for any distance,am not sure AC will make it back on it....but that's not a given popRocket989 wrote:AC would go (back) on first here too...even before carpet or arm rests!!!
