Hand break lever
Hello gang-does anyone know how i can make the handbreak lever a little more friendly to use? Has anyone ever considered how to make the lever better to hold and apply,I saw a item some years ago in a mag 'cant remember which one now 'in which they took a handgrip off a scrap car and fitted it to the Minor and i beleive it was a good fit.Has anyone done this to their car and if so how did you go about it.The very best of regards Twinkle the Traveller and Bill.

hand brake
I think you will find that the grip from a Mini or similar will slide
off the lever and fit straight on to your car. It just pushes on like
a handlebar grip.

It's the grip off an MG Metro, fits perfectly!
