Now for under the dash parking brake parts. I see my bag of fasteners for the handle hardware is missing the spring and the little clamp/bolt that secures the outside sheath of the cable to the underdash bracket. You can see in the photo the 90 degree bracket with a small hole in it to accommodate a return spring.

I don't remember ever seeing or removing that spring (of course, disassembly took place more than 3 years ago). In the photo, the parking brake cable is shown on the wrong side of the bracket (it is secured by the missing part on the inside of the bracket, in other words closer to the center of the vehicle).

That looks like an excellent conversion. I ended up using the stock cable set-up on my 66, but did have to tweak a few things to make it work correctly and clear my subframe connectors. The single cable set-up is much cleaner approach and would've saved a headache for me.

Do you have the brake pedal assembly installed? If so, could you post up a photo of the pedals near the pivot and parking brake handle/pivot when you get it all installed? I just finished putting mine together in my 66 Dart and seem to have an extra spring on my work bench. I'm trying to figure out where it goes. Haha!
