buy one for a 1500 (68 on std) beetle and bolt it up.
You can either make up the plumming from the early reservoir to the twin circuit master, or use a late reservoir and hoses.
Depending on the brand you use, you can use a volvo or golf reservoir which plugs right into the reservoir grommets. Just a little more tricky to fill and check, but looks better than the late stuff in an early engine bay.

Sorry if this is off topic but has anyone used a brake booster/ valcuum assist on a type 1?
