Wanted an opinion or two about removing the E Brake handle on my 68 Chevy 1/2 ton and intalling an E Brake pedal from a 71 Chevy.
Is it something that can be done relatively easily more importantly would it even be worth the trouble??

I don't think it would be worth it..when you pull the handle it pushes a rod to a bellcrank assembly..
when you step on pedal, it pulls a rod to the cable..so you'd have to change more then the stuff in the cab...

I prefer a handle anyway, as it makes starting out on a hill nearly fool-proof when you have a manual transmission.
