Emergency brake delete

I've done a lot of work on the 71 C10 Chevy truck for my best friend Terius. ALL of the parking brake parts except the pedal assembly itself was GONE. I mean ALL of it. He asked me if it was really necessary. He's a Gray, Georgia police officer. I told him yes that I was pretty sure there were laws regarding properly working equipment. He came back the next day and said I was right, that his Major showed him the Georgia statute. Also, his truck is a four speed, which makes the parking brake that much more important. Bout 150 bucks later, he has a good working parking brake.

....and I'm not trying to change your mind. It's your car. I sure would hate to see someone hurt though when a simple parking brake could have prevented it. You never know.
