Is this a 70 only deal?

I have never seen this before?

And here I thought all the questions had already been asked an answered!!!!!!!
1974 Cuda. 360 / A500 OD.  Yes its pink, no its not my wife's car!  Yes I drive it.

I know it's 70-71 for sure. After than I don't know.  :dunno:  I would guess all the way to 74 but that's just a guess.

70 is all by it's self, no intermediate cable that loops from side to side. right rear cable comes across the differential to the left side.  :alan2cents:

It's NOT 1970, but 1971 and up...I would also assume all the way to 1974. :alan2cents:

It's definitely on my 73... looped cable, passenger side anchor as shown, center anchor mounted to top of tranny cross-member, and e-brake cable and adjuster on driver's side...

DUH!  I forgot 70 uses the cable that run down the drivers side and splits on the frame rail in front of the axle. Like the one in this pic. Good catch!!!!

This forum is AWESOME! I installed my ebrake, two days ago. I was not at all happy with the way it hung and the clearance of the exhaust. Tonight's project was to jury rig some anchors to get it up, closer to the floor. I am so glad I read this! You guys amaze me, with your breadth of knowledge. Thanks!

Glad I saw this  :bradsthumb:

Gonna correct mine this weekend. I was wondering why my cable was low.
