Default ‘63 Master cylinder

My master cylinder is shot. I can’t seem to find any rebuild kits anywhere. Even replacement masters appear to have the line coming out the side, where as the current one comes out the front.
Car is a ‘63 V-8 car with power brakes.
Thanks for any help.

Many years ago I sent mine to White Post Restorations. It wasn't cheap but they did excellent work for me. Here's the link to their website.

I saw 2 rebuilt Tempest master cylinders on Ebay.
If you put a rebuild kit in your original it's going to leak because of pitting in the cylinder.

Thanks guys. Yeah prefer to rebuild my own or buy aftermarket, as it’s driving season now and I want to get my car on the road.
