Hi Smiley
Welcome to MLU and fantastic to hear that another Humber will be going back on the road.
Where abouts in Aust. are you ?
Tim Vibert at Wangaratta should have most of the B60 bits as he supplies Ferret parts.
Russell Altmann in Stawel may have some parts mixed in with all his Champ stuff.
If you want the contact details for these guys, let me know and I will PM them to you.
Wheel cylinders sound like they are same as the Ferret, maybe easier to get them sleeved in Stainless Steel, the 1/8 cups are as common as... Master cylinder kit also common.
As for the booster, no idea.
Champ Parts do have Humber parts in the UK, but at a premium cost.
Workshop manuals on CD do come up on E-bay (from Vintage Manuals ? in the UK) but he wants about $115 Aust. for them. User manuals are cheaper, and Tim V. does have copies of the Parts book.
How about some pics of your project??
By my reckoning, 2 tons of Humber spare parts is a couple of wheel barrow loads, man they made these things heavy.
Corowa 2011 is Year of the British, if you are looking for a reason to get it finished.....
Rich.
