Parking Brakes

I have a Shell Valley Cobra with a 9" Ford rear. The rear disc brakes look like some type of racing design, almost like a disc brake from a motorcycle only much larger and heavier, with a decal on the hub that says Oldsmoble, Pontiac. There is no provision for the drum type parking brake inside the hub like on a vette or something similar. How do you install a parking brake? Is there a kit out there for this?

Thanks,

Greg

Mine come through with the SVO setup with the internal band brakes for the emergency. Is there a place to connect cables to the calipers? I understand some calipers have the capability to be controlled mechanically for the emergency brake.

Hog,

Thanks for the reply. Not sure if I can hook up a cable to the calipers but I will check. I got the car about a month ago so I am still going over things. Your car looks great!
