I'm restoring a 68 Charger, non-RT, 383, automatic. Most of the stuff is proceeding well enough.
The emergency brake works, but it won't return to the 'off' position when you pull the handle. You have to put your foot under the pedal and pull the pedal back while you pull back on the release knob.
I've searched high and low for an absent spring, and can't find any pictures or documentation to point me in the right direction. I can't even figure out the engineering that is supposed to make the brake pedal return to its normal position. Below is a photo of the brake pedal assembly as it is right now.
Anyone have an idea what I'm missing or what I can do to get this brake to return properly when I pull the release handle?
Thanks,
