[Challenge] Emergency / Parking Brake Setup for modified 1964 C10

[nibulus]

Dear board members, I'd need some help solving a technical challenge I have with my truck.

First, a bit of info about the truck/drive train:

• 1964 C10
• 396ci engine
• TH350 trans
• original(?) e-brake lever below the dash
• 12 bolt rearend (probably from a later model g-body, i=3,73 iirc)
• leaf springs

My (current) challenges regarding the parking brake:

(1) there's only one "loose" cable; the one from the lever ending under the cab. The rearend has only martially cut cables on both sides (5-7" long or so). Nothing else really. No connectors, equalizers, hooks...nothing. Unless I've overlooked/forgotten something.

(2) I have no decent suppliers for US (truck) parts locally.

Thus, I would need/like to build up almost everything from scratch with (new) parts from the US. I'm in contact with Inlinetube regarding this issue, but they struggle a bit with my drive train combo. They're very cooperative though and are working on this (too).

My initial idea was to somehow combine 64-66 C10 front cables (LMC diagram here) with rear cables for the 12 bolt (LMC diagram here), but apparently that's not a walk in the park. The fact that I'm not familiar with the original e-brake setup for the truck doesn't really make this easier.

But I'm ready for the challenge. With your help.
