SO... Since I plan to run buckets I was thinking about putting a handle like a lot of cars have that fits between the seats. And since the hook up to the E-brake "crossover" arm is off center of the drive shaft on the drivers side it seems to make since you could place a "pull up arm" beside the drivers bucket seat and not do the foot E-brake.
Has anyone done this....or have thoughts on it? What did you use?
Thanks guys.
Edit: I have a small block with a 350 tranny in my 52panel. I once had an 88 Nissan with a floor hand brake and it worked very good. Nearby Southern Rods has a floor mounted hand brake for a little over $100 but I"m sure someone out there has done this and can recommend one that works great in the trucks/panels. One from a junk yard.
