Missing parking brake cable frame brackets
My 73 is missing the frame parking brake cable brackets. I think they rusted away? Anyway I need to get some bolt on or weld on replacements. Where was the original location? Pictures would be a great help. Thanks. Den

The parking brake system has never been known to be spectacular so maybe someone just threw in the towel and removed it all?
Anyway, that's where they should be, pass side is the same. Two threaded holes into the frame for each bracket. Pretty much right under the cross brace

My "73 PO removed the brackets on the TA's because they interfered with the wheels he chose to run. I have since had them replaced and now running stock wheels. He was not running an emergency brake but I now have one.

The plot thickens, that may be? I have American Racing wheels. I'll check the clearance. She had all the stock steel hardware all rusted up no cables. I'd like to switch back to the factory rims anyway, much better looking.
