I'm not as familliar with these older models as the 69' and trying to help a buddy out on his car. We are finding all kinds of previous owner decisions that have us scratching our heads. His parking brake never really has worked right and we aren't sure how to fix it or what is even incorrect. We just pulled out what looks like a rebuilt Dana 4 speed and you can see by this pic the old exhaust is a hand fabbed oddity that wasn't even the same size as the reducers to the headers so it's all filled up with welds.
Anyway, this is pretty much how the bracket was positioned before we removed it and I don't know if this a hand fabbed part too or how it supposed to be or what. The exhaust is being replaced with a new Magnflow 2.5" SS system but the 4speed is going back and we'd like to just fix this brake issue while we are at it if we can. Not sure if it matters but this car was a 6cyl automatic originally, actually the front clip is from a 66 as well, it's got all kind of issues that are being unraveled. I know he asked for my help but I'm not sure yet if he's now happy or miserable at what I've been bringing to his attention, lol.
Any and all help and or pics are greatly appreciated!
