63 roadster emergency brake cable replace?
While setting the parking brake the handle came off in my hand. The end of
the cable broke at the handle. I bought an OEM cable but am unsure of how big of a job it is to re-route thru the car back to the rear brake yoke. Any knowledge to share about this task? |

The cable from the handle goes through the firewall and to a lever under the
frame near the center cross member. There are some clamps along the way that hold the cable. You need to have the car in the air but it isn't that hard.
