e-brake bracket & gas pedal

I'm looking into putting e-brakes brackets & gas pedal from a modern truck (Ford) into my 55; what have you Guys used which was simple and easy to take off a salvage truck, I think I'll head to a salvage yard this weekend. I was looking at some of Lokar's accessories which are pretty pricey. If anyone has already install these items & have pics please let me know.
Thanks in advance!!

I'm a long ways away, but since I'm using a 9" rear end, I'm looking at a 67-79 F100/150 parking brake cable set-up....shortbed would be ideal. They have the ball ends that fit into the 9" rear's drums, and they're fairly still plentiful in the junkyards. Rusted? yes, rusted to the point of being no good? not likely. That's my plan atleast.

As far as the e-brake, i haven't any suggestions. I have been eyeballing a Lokar eliminator gas pedal assembly though. I agree, pricey ($119-$139). There is an Ebay seller that has Lokar clones for like $50 buy it now. I have been waiting to see if I can find a six cylinder original throttle arm before I go to that route though.
