Hand Brake Frame Attachment on a 1959

[Tony M.]

I hope everyone is well!

I was tightening up my exhaust system when I noticed what seemed to be a pipe fitting acting like a spacer on my handbrake attachment point on my frame??? This is the first point of frame attachment coming from the inside hand brake lever. I tried to look at the major vendors for parts or schematics but found nothing.

Question: Can anyone share a picture or schematic of the parts that support the brake cable on the frame?

Thanks again to all for your support!

Maybe a picture during a frame restoration?

Tony there's a welded on strap, bent to a long U-shape. The cable has a special section to mate to it and held with a pinch bolt.

I recall its shown in the AIM. I don't have mine handy.

I may have photos on the laptop but inaccessible for now.

Thanks again Richard. I checked AIM but could not get the details I needed. I will check my buddies car and get him on my lift.

Have a great weekend!
