Remember there were TWO different rear brake calipers with different parking brakes built in, even though both were Girling. It may be that the small iron calipers and the big aluminum calipers take different length brake cables, or at least different ends. I borrowed a set of the aluminum rear brakes from a friend and he included the stock cables for that varient. I'll try to get some photos & measurements in my 'spare time'....
Hi Jack, I (and others surely!) would REALLY apprciate any info on the parking brake cable assembly. MY puzzle car (#1010) has alloy rear calipers and never had the cable portion of the p-brake system. I'd especially like to get dimensions on the ends. Hoping they are machined parts that can be readily copied! I believe the flexible conduit sections are terminated with the same brass 'adapters' found on Panteras (2 required per conduit). If this is the case I'd be glad to provide dimensions for everyone on that part, have some of those laying around. The factory advertised lengths of the conduit is 750mm (left side) and 1000mm (right) but not sure if these were the 'actual' numbers. Regards to all, Nate Stevens
