Mk 1 Parking brake broken




Ut oh

Did the actual tab on the bracket on the body break?  There is a little
finger that sticks out from the bracket that keeps that toothed pie shape
piece in place....if that finger is broken, you need to be creative and
replace it, or replace the bracket completely (weld on a new one).

Potterman can get you a replacement body bracket...it comes attatched to a
section of the tranny hump and has the ebrake tubes attatched too....
