A remanufactured vacuum booster should be available through any full-service auto parts jobber. There are many businesses dealing in this kind of stuff all over the 'net also onna exchange basis or they will build your core.
Rebuilding a booster is not a diy operation. I don't have the tools fixtures for doing that and would never attempt it due to the very reasonable cost of a rebuilt and availability.
Ya will also need to specify whether the booster is for a drum/drum application (single diaphragm) or a disc/drum app (dual diaphragm).
Before doing anything else though, check the "check valve" in the grommet on the front can of the booster for blockage. It is a one-way valve that prevents lose of vacuum in the booster when the engine is shut down. They will fail.
