I'm have found out a bit more about the origin booster and master cylinder. It seems to be a combination like this one
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Power-Brake-Boo ... ln&vxp=mtr

That seem to be the part I could take to have a perfect fit or not ? It's made for front disk and rear drums like I have on my car ...
Do someone know if I would need other parts to install this in change of my actually manual master cylinder or could I just screw out the old one and install the booster and the new master cylinder in place ?

Thanks for your help,

Welcome to the board.

Yes, that is the correct booster and master you need. The only difference is it's not plated correctly. The originals came from the factory was plated cadmium (gold looking color). As stated above, http://www.dr.diff.com is a good place to get the disc stuff. I had drum brakes all around on my car and he provided me with discs for the front. It came with the proportioning /distribution valve and everything else, even the spindles. Everything bolted right up with no issues. He is a good guy to talk to and answers either phone or email when he is not busy. I don't know if he would ship outside the US but you can ask.

You do need a new gasket between the booster and firewall. If you don't have the gasket, go to http://www.dmt.com. This guy makes and sells gaskets to all of the businesses that sells parts for these old cars.

I don't know if you're changing brake lines or not but I did with mine. Again, even the lines went on with no issues.

I can't post a picture, too big and haven't figured out how to re-size it to post

If you have more questions, we are all here to help.
