I want to convert the e-brake setup in my 69 nova from the foot pedal type to a hand brake in between the seats. I am considering using one out of a junkyard car (not sure yet, havent really looked around) or maybe the lokar setup. Anyone have any experience with this, or any ideas, tips, etc?
Thanks

Well, the Lokar works good.

We've done them in 3 cars now, including this 69 Camaro recently.

When used with the Lokar cables, it makes installation a snap.

We've only tried them on rear disc cars.

BTW, a member here (Tito) makes a kit to really help stiffen the mounting in a clean way.

that looks like a nice clean install, does lokar offer the boot also or is that custom?

That's the Lokar boot too.
