Hi Tom,
Same here - someone swapped in a 460, C6, and changed the rear diff. I am told it it a Ford.
No parking brakes - cable housings empty, handle/pedal missing. I have replaced one of the housings and cables, one to go. Wrecking yard to find an actuator handle.
Warning: my brakes are not original. The booster under the dash is abandoned and the brake pedal goes thru the floor to a SINGLE master cylinder. Booster is off to the side. I had a near accident when I blew a rear tire, somehow had a brake fire (fire first I think, causing a blowout) causing the wheel cylinder to leak so much I couldn't get any brake pedal. I was able to coast to a stop.
BTW, check out your wheels. I have 6 lug, 16.5" super singles in front, 8 lug 16" duals in rear. I am trying now to change the fronts to 8 lug. I don't know if this is possible.
-Al.
