Here is a summary of what I have found as options for the '62;
1) Rock Auto will send the old unit directly to Prior Automotive in Dallas, Texas to be reconditioned. Talked to the guys there who said that RA gets a 50% discount so best to go through them rather than direct to Prior. Lastest cost was $204. Good call Stuart!
2) White Post can do the restoration for just $445 plus shipping. They will do both the master & booster to OE condition with a 2 week turnaround.
3) Auto City has the complete disk brake conversion that includes a new master /booster for only $650. Master Power Brake has a similar kit but for $1029. Quite a difference in price! Did not research more as I want to retain the front drums.
4) Kanter does not carry anything for this car.
5) Steve at BrakeBoosters.com no longer does the '62 but only '64 & up for $399.
6) Master Power Brake has a new dual master & booster for $397 + shipping.
Since I want the dual cylinder I am going that way. Plus Richie has confirmed the product. Just need to either replace the OE junction block from a 4-port 7/16" part to a 3-port or plug the rear port along with running the rear line direct.
