After 40 years my plastic handle broke. The new one broke after two weeks. This one will stay.

I took the handle to Lowes, found a pipe thread that matched the OD of the shaft coming from the E-Brake, force threaded it to the handle, drilled and tapped a hole to match the hole in the shaft for the roll pin for a hex screw, painted the pipe aluminum and there you are.

Looks good! Where did you get your instrument panel?

It is a JME Billet cluster w/ Autometer guages. I think I bought it from Mustang Depot but there are several distributors.


I am very pleased with it.
