screws break when I removed my door hinges from the body. There's not

This one's got me scratching my head.  Decided to get the driver's side
window working on the '55 coupe today as even just moving it around or
taking a quick test spin it's nice to roll the window down, and what's
worse, it didn't roll all the way up.  Well I took the door panel ...

I received the following email from a Studebaker man in France.
Unfortunately, it is in French which I don't read or speak.  I tried several

Finally had a free sat yesterday and made it out to the 'yard I spotted
the '62 lark with PB that I found last summer.  Intent was to get the
booster and brackets, which I did.  The unit looks "OK" on the outside,
some surface rust.  I can wiggle the plunger rods on the in and out

1964 CDR: 6 Cylinder, 3 spd, drum brakes, not power brakes.
