Does anyone know where to go to find a new handbrake lever,cable and all the other bits needed?I have looked on ebay but did not find anything,but remember seeing a kit you could buy somewhere.

Many thanks in advance

I think most people go directly to Ford - they cost many arms & legs IIRC

For cables use your local motor factor, they do them for sensible money.

levers/mechanisms are a different matter though, but unlike cables theres not much to wear on second hand examples.

Why not visit your local breakers for a handbrake? Plenty of choice there. I bought a new MK2 Escort cable from the local motorfactors for £11.
