Longchamp hand brake cable. | The De Tomaso Forums

Hello everyone,
I need to replace the hand brake cable on my Longchamp. Does anyone have any information on whether it is sourced as a Ford part or Jaguar part, and where I can possibly get a replacement? Preferably in Australia.
Thanks in advance,
Neil.

This is not what you ask, but if the cable is in one piece but just not moving smooth (or at all) any more, I had the same problem. I took it off, let it float in used oil for days, then exercised it back and forth, oil bath again, etc etc. Now it works perfectly.

Thanks Mikael, but unfortunately it is in 2 pieces due to mishap, so looking for a replacement.

Ok
Plan C: contact Roland at detomaso.de he will know
Plan D: take the faulty old cable to a place that produces custom cables

Good luck
