A 57 Chevy on ebay. How exactly does this work?

I would assume a hydraulic coupling of master/slave cylinders, similar to a hydraulic clutch linkage. Look between the booster and the battery, you'll see what looks like a hydraulic cylinder.

My biggest worry would be trying to carry engine vacuum all the way back there.

Yup. More than likely he has a small single cylinder under the dash attached to his brake pedal that runs a hydraulic line back to the trunk to activate the dual master cylinder.

And then he has to plumb a vacuum line back there from the engine.

The things we will do for a clean firewall.

I wonder what the dipstick in the trunk is for? Did it have IRS?

Corvette suspension.
Crazy looking tube chassis.
The funny thing is there is still a master cyl on the firewall. I assume it is for hydraulic clutch.
