Hi all,
Trying to help a friend with some parts for his DeTomaso:
Anyone here that know where to obtain a repair kit for the brake booster?
Or perhaps a new brake booster?
It has 4 bolts and is for a 1980 GT5.
What's the part number for the Ducato booster mentioned previously?
Cheers Bjoern

Would this be the Fiat Brake servo?
Only one I found for sale and he is out of stock
