hello every one. Thanks James W for the introduction and the warm welcome. As far as taking some criticism on an "other" forum I am getting better at it as requested here is a topside picture.

Maybe on this forum there are more 'restomods' than stock, but the real world has different numbers. (Note the use of words, punctuation and grammar.)

Here we go again. Same crap different day. If you don't like it keep the comments to yourself. I am about ready to stop participating in this forum and stick with other forums that are more interested in supporting each other and not bashing them. Consturctive criticism is one thing but sometimes it just goes to far. I like the idea of the hand brake. It would be much easier to get to if one needed it.

Welcome to the board Daze. Aside from ergonomics, does the swapped in handle dramatically improve the effectiveness of the parking brake? By inspection, it appears that your handle will provide a greater mechanical advantage over the stock setup, but what I don't know is how that translates tothe performance of the cable actuated drums.
