I have two suggestions for hooking up your emergency brake cable to the 10-bolt rear axle; About four years ago I found a guy (through Hemming's) that custom makes cables "Brake cables by George" (7

To my fellow ole-truckers in eastern NC (Jerry Cox?) I have just bought a parts truck (a '51, I believe, somebody's project that went sour). It does not have a driveline and the frame has been butche
