The separate emergency brake system was because of many 'foreign'markets required it by law. Many European countries, Japan & some of the Commonwealth countries all had to have the separate hand brake system.
This also occurred for the 1932 B/V8 where most of the cars exported from Nth America had double brake rods & double cross shafts. Cheers Tom in NZ
