i did a search about brake cables, and found little, most everything was about using previa pads, and one about selling a brake cable from 2 years ago....
so, my problem is the part in the tunnel that connects the lever cable to the two brake cables. It is rusted/corroded bad. It is beyond repair, as the connector for the right brake cable is broken through. Since I have shipwright's disease, I won't just replace the one part, but I want to be able to replace everything, back from the lever to the brakes.
Does anyone have the full deal or does anyone know where I could order one? please, please, PLEASE!!! I bought this car to be something like a driving restoration.... but if I have to fabricate a part, I won't stop there, I'll have the car totally torn apart and going through it with a toothbrush from the front fascia to the rear!
I got this disease from my days when I restored Triumphs (a TR7, a Spitfire 1500, and a Vitesse Sports 6), but I was allot younger then and jumping in and tearing a car apart and putting back together had much more appeal then than it does now :icon_bigg
a big thanks to you guys/gals, you remind me of the SHO forum and the Triumph mailing lists (remember those? yeah, WAY before forums :aigo: )
