Help to Identify a Ford Handbrake part/Tiger Supercat

[RemaL]

I have been fitting new Hi Spec callipers to the rear of my Tiger Supercat after the old recon callipers I had failed.

No issues fitting it and they look lovely.

The only issue I have is its been many years (Approx 10 Years) since I have had the handbrake T piece (from handbrake to the 2 rear handbrake cables) Apart.

I need to renew the cable that is fixed to the handbrake that joined onto the balance bar for the 2 cables.

I have no idea what it's called or where to buy one from.

Any idea. Pic of the part I need



Any idea

Will be listed as "handbrake cable (front section)" or similar in the parts catalogs. What donor its from though could be more of a problem as they might have picked one based on the length but Tiger should know.

Well spoke to Jim who cannot at the moment help apart from the part is from a Mk1 Polo Handbrake. Dear god thats not going to be easy to get unless we source a new who handbrake

Your photo.... Is there anything else needed which isn't in the photo, or is the cable just clamped on the end LHS of photo?
If so I'm sure there will be suppliers who can make something up, or you could get a cable to suit many cars? which has the correct size eye on the end and just needs cutting to length.

Try a good yacht chandlers, they make cables up to length like this all the time.

One made me up a clutch cable for my Tiger Supersix about fifteen years ago, but I've forgotten which firm it was....(South coast I think)

the end with the hole is bolted to the handbrake and the cable run's to a Balance bar which then had the 2 rear handbrakes connected to that.

A Update from my post last night I managed to find a Mk1 polo handbrake cable front like I need via Ebay. New old stock so ordered that.
