was wondering if anyone could give me any and every tidbit of information on how to convert the parking brake so you could use the '89 PB setup?? 
As of this moment the PB on my '65 is out of order because after putting in the T-5, with the way my exhaust is and the T-5 conversion crossmember (with the PB bracket) I cannot properly attach the rear cables to the front cable that goes up to the actual lever in the car. (the exhaust will not let the bar that connects the two rear cables to the one front cable slide)Sooooooo since I was wanting to put in the modern PB setup with it on the tranny tunnel, and since I have an extra Fox setup lying around from my bros '89, AND since the Fox PB would be BEHIND the transmission and therefore free for movement, I figured using the Fox PB would allow me to again use my PB and also have the desired look I want! any and every bit of info would be great! (ie: websites, other members who have done the swap, etc)

It shouldn't be very hard. Just hack up your tunnel and run the cable.  ------------------
