This company makes all kinds of custom cables if you have your old one, or have the specs you need to give them. http://www.push-pull.com/ Its where I got mine

I have an e-brake cable off of a 48 F3. I don't need it but am not sure if it fits your truck. Check it out and let me know. I will give it another look to see how good it is.

i pull the 3 cables off my 40 ford 1 ton,the 1 from the cab i think will work(by the time i finished with the axle i was to bummed out to try the front one).like i said the PO cut the 2 that go to each side of the axle,so i dont have the measurements of the cable to send to the push pull guys.
the cables that go in the backing plate have a clevis on the end that hooks on the e-brake lever and where it goes in the backing plate it is 2 flat pieces that sandwich the cable,with 2 ears???for the nuts and bolts.the f3sould be the same as the merc m-68,(as far as i can figure).i dont know where sandy run is but i guess UPS does.if your cables are in good shape how much would you want for themim not sure how it works or if you can maybe you could PM me.
thanks for the replies

I've got at least one but not sure about two rear wheel cables. Came off a 51-52 f3 with 14 inch brakes. If interested I can take a closer look.
