63 Park brake handle question
How does the park brake cable attach to the handle shaft? The end of the
cable is fine, I just don't know which parts are missing to re-attach the cable to it. The handle came off in my hand when I pulled on it to set brake. I have a Zip and Corv. Central catalog but I can't tell by their illustrations. Thanx- lib |

63 Park brake handle question
I spoke to a products rep at CC this am and he informed me that after
describing the problem to him, he had a new handle assmbly brought over from the warehouse. He came to the conclusion that the problem is in the end of the cable and it needs to be replaced. It stands to reason it could break after 30+ years of being pulled on. At least it is a problem that can be resolved for less than $200- lib "WayneC" > wrote in message ... > lib wrote: >> How does the park brake cable attach to the handle shaft?
