Parking brake options
Last part of the chassis rebuild is the parking brake assembly.
I plan to run the parking brake setup from Inline Tube. I'm looking at options for the parking brake handle. Should I run a custom handle setup from Lokar or something like that or run a stock type 1971-72 foot pedal assembly? |

Re: Parking brake options
If you use a lokar where do you plan to mount it?

Re: Parking brake options
Simplify life and use the stock 67-68 handle

 Does anyone have a pic of the 67-68 handle with the painted cover in place?

Re: Parking brake options
Not the best pic..... I really like that foot style from Lokar. That looks sweet!!! You might have just added a few more dollars to my "parts needed" column! I don't like the factory hand brake either.

Re: Parking brake options
From the interior of the chopped "Dale Earnhart" memorial pickup.
Upholstered emerg brake handle w/ cover. Hope the image attachment works. I'm still unfamiliar with that. BTW: Not my photos, just some I saved of that way-cool truck when it was being sold |

Re: Parking brake options
A better-closeup view to see the stitching/detail work on the emerg brake handle. The amount of detail that went into this truck was unbelievable.
I don't know who did the work, or who bought the truck when it sold, but what a cool rig ............. |

Re: Parking brake options
71-72 foot assembly would be pretty sweet. It looks better than the 67-68 hand one and is easy to use.

Re: Parking brake options
That painted 67 setup with the cover doesn't look too bad. I still like the foot pedal setup, gives a smoother dash look.
For the OEM foot setup, do I just buy a pedal assy from a 71-72 truck complete? |

Re: Parking brake options
Those are nice, I like them both. But since I'm 6'4" and always knock my ol' knees I would use the foot pedal.

Re: Parking brake options
You could run the lokar handbrake set-up and mount it down by the drivers side seat track ????
