400 handbrake cable remake

[Daniel]

Dear Flyinghorse,
I had the same thing happen to me and bought a replacement from Bristol"s spares department, unfortunately it was the cable for the later 400's which have an outer metal casing whereas my one is just a bare cable which runs through something like a brake pipe conduit. So the good news is I have an unused spare cable which would probably fit your car but the bad news is goodness knows where I have put it, hung it up or otherwise disposed of it. Then again if I cant find it you can get one from Bristols or have one made up like I did by posting yours to a company called Cable-Tec who are proper old fashioned and like to talk to you about what you want over the phone. If you cant find their details I can look them out for you.
Best wishes,
Daniel
