It looks like from the address on Google Maps a regular brake shop.

I wonder if they bought the business from Dewey?

Of course they are across the street from the old Seaview Chevrolet - a true nexus of shady dealings.

Yes, it is the former Dewey brake booster business. They had a solid reputation and I couldn't find any red flags about the continuing business. They advertise everywhere, no less than 20 print ads a month in Hemmings. Guess I was just the unlucky customer. This car has ZERO Chinese knock-off parts on it. Everything is OE or NOS replacements. The $139.00 Chinese knock-off booster is looking mighty good right now I must admit. Other than wanting to keep the car as China free as possible, the knock-off boosters are not quite the right color. They are too bright and just don't look quite right. If I can't fix the OE booster Power Booster Exchange ruined, I may have to use one.
