Re: 1966 c60 wheel cylinder problems
I have done a bunch. As stated in earlier posts a small hone and brake fluid is needed. run it in a few times and it should have about a 45degree pattern. Look for rust pitting. If it has pitting it may need replacing. Napa had wheel cylinders for $15-18.

Re: 1966 c60 wheel cylinder problems
Just to clarify, the OP is looking for wheel cylinders for a C60 not a C10. There is a big difference.
I would say that rebuilding the wheel cylinders you have is going to be the most economical way to go.

Re: 1966 c60 wheel cylinder problems
I wish you the best of luck, but I'd be surprised if honing will clean the bores up enough. They are likely deeply pitted. Another option instead of new ones is to have your old ones sleeved. White Post Restorations is one such place that does this in brass. However, if you didn't like the cost of new ones, you won't like sleeving either. The advantage of sleeving over new cylinders is that you won't have the same problem later down the road. So if the C60 is a keeper, you may be better off in the long run. White Post did all of the wheel, master, and slave cylinders on my C80. Expensive but worth it.
