Re: c4 rear end handbrake setup

I've set up a bracket under the dash to use and operate like the later late 50's into 60's handle. Made a fire wall mount point and welded it in and ordered 2 park brake cable kits. One pair to intercept the rear pads and a 2nd for one to go from the handle inside the cab to the tee grabbing the rear pair. They will be run thru the stock frame arm keepers on either side and under the cab to connect together. Mine is a 51 stock frame with C4 suspension.
I have no idea what the finish function is going to be, but thought of the newer cable systems for the newer brakes utilizing an old stock under the dash handle.
