I have a Baer Track system installed on my 69 Camaro with 12" discs on the rear. Have not hooked up the park brake yet as it is different than the stock one. Does anyone have suggestions or information regarding a good park brake for this system? I am planning on converting to a hand brake.

I've been considering getting the single disk park brake that bolts in to the rear U-joint on the driveshaft myself... I've seen them on lots of hot rods, but not many muscle cars. I figure this would probably not cost too much, and would make it easy to use a hand brake (as far as routing cables).

Haven't looked into it that much though...

Have you lookes at Lokar's (http://lokar.com/interior_pages/ebrakes.htm) stuff yet? They make cables for just about anything.

I still like this guys setup. Same one I'm going with. Would work well with the lokar cables....

I have replica E brake brackets used in the Mule for sale if you'd like some. It may be just what you were planning on doing.

Control Concepts in Santa Fe Springs, CA can make the cables.
