You are looking for a parking brake handle...is this correct? There's a gazillion different types.

Also, could you post the VIN? I want to make sure your truck is an F600 and not an LN600.

Parking brake has a squeeze type release handle, correct?

Ford did not sell just the handle, it was only furnished with the parking brake control.

C7TZ-2780-B .. Parking Brake Control / Obsolete

1967/72 F500/600 with NP435 / 1973 F500/600 with NP435 before serial number S00,001.

No Ford dealer or obsolete parts vendor has any.
