You know what's funny... I HAVE a parking break cable for her.... bought it off of e-bay (NOS for an early 70 Mav) took her into Midas and asked them to install it... I guess they were too busy that day. I'm taking Alice back to the tranny shop to make sure the linkage is OK and then to yet another break shop and DEMAND that they install it... even if they won't/can't use mine and I have to buy one from them. It's not an issue of money, the Tranny is still under warrenty and I have the cash for the cable install.
I think when I made the post I was still in shock from the incident.... I was two feet away from the car and it never occured to me that this could happen.... I've earned the dumbass of the week award... let's hope it serves as a reminder for others!
