Can anyone direct me to a good readable diagram or maybe installed pictures of the parking brake cable routing and hardware in place?  I have a parts book but the illustration is awful at best.
Mine (1972) has an intermediate cable.

Thanks

Funny because you are correct in that it is really a parking brake.
Emergency brakes also used a cable (in case of hydraulic failure) but with a handle that could be used to modulate the brakes. A parking brake is all or nothing.

Yeah, I have always known it as a "parking brake".  But at least I found what I needed  :twothumbsup:
