I have a 4 door Beauford (not Long Body) and require a handbrake cable. Apparently the handbrake cable was supplied with the Kit and was not taken from the cortina donor car. Can anyone tell me what car the handbrake cable is from? The Cortina handbrake cable has the correct fittings but is too long.

If the Cortina cable has the right end fittings then it was likely it was shortened. This is very common on many kit cars.

Speak to somebody like Speedycables and they can either make you one to your requirements or modify a new cable if you already have one.

There are other companies around as well.
