e-brake release Handle

I bought this about one year ago and it yanked off today because the threads are junk. The old one stayed on for over 40 years. New junk... one year.

Back to the old one that looks old but works... if I can find it.

Re: e-brake release Handle

I have a 1965 Pontiac chrome metal one on my 70 C10. Some other GM cars like Caddys had nice ones.

Re: e-brake release Handle

Every black plastic brake release handle I've seen in these trucks has turned gray. The 70s, 80s and maybe early 90s full size vans used the identical threaded handle, and they do not turn gray. The 73-87 trucks used one that looks the same, but I've never been able to get one off. They don't seem to be threaded. Do you have a junkyard near you?
