Parking Brake Options
I seem to have "misplaced" my stock parking brake handle for my 53. What are some other options out there other than using a high priced Lokar or something like that.
I thought a foot pedal type might be handy, but it might be too high if it is mounted to the dash. What about the "pull and twist" types like were on early Mustangs? Anybody done anything like this? Pros/cons?
I'm open for ideas

I put a foot operated emergency brake on Gracie from a Jeep Cherokee (I was told, bought it on ebay for 5.00). You can see pix in my making changes gallery. It was relatively easy to do and fit perfectly between the dash and firewall.
