The parts truck I brought home the other day had disc brakes but no brake booster('76 F100) . I figured the booster went out and someone just converted back to manual. Since then I've noticed three or four at the salvage ,mid '70's trucks with disc brakes and no booster. I always assumed that the disc brake setup came with power brakes.
Did they send them out with manual brakes from the factory?

re: disc brakes without power
my 79 parts truck is a non power disc brake setup. I plan on transfering it over as a non power setup.
