Default 1938 Tudor standard

Looking for someone I can converse with who owns a 38 Tudor stock or close to it. I have several questions on putting this car back together and need some answers that I don't find in manuals. Would really appreciate it.

I need to know how the e brake cable is routed into the driver's area? If I could see a pic it would be great.

Thanks,
Bob

It enters the cabin to the left & above the speedometer cable entry. I'll try to get some photos!

Here is what my 1937 Fordor brake cable routing looks like.

The car, very similar to yours, is original stock configuration.

The ridge in the metal piece at the top of the toe board allows the cable to pass.

Hope these photos help you.

Thanks for the pictures Tony M. I see now that I'm missing the two metal brackets for the toe board. I going to assume that the toe board has an indentation that allows the cable to pass thru between the toe board and the gasket?

Yes, the metal strip at the top of the wooden piece has a curved area allows the cable to pass.
It can be seen in this photo.
