64 Dynamic Brake Cables

I am looking for the rear parking brake cable for my 64 88 2 door Holiday. It is one piece, drum to drum. Closest I have come so far is possibly a long right and a short left from Fusick, not sure of their lengths yet, or a RE421 from Inline stated for a 64 on up Chevy II. Going to call them tomorrow and see what the housing lengths are. Any other ideas out there? Anyone replaced them recently?
Thank you, Steve

If you want real ones, and not cheesy reproductions that are toys and snap upon first use....
I have the old catalog -- and can tell you the absolutely 100 % correct specifications...

And my father in law has made them for the planet for the last 50 years....

Always best to simply call me --- Craig --- 516 - 485 - 1935.....

Hey Steve,
Don't know if, over a week later, you've decided not to bother, but my father-in-law is making a cable tonight, that I have to add to an order to send when it is here....

If you want FREE Shipping from him to me, call me tomorrow (Tuesday) morning....

Of course, it won't be the last time, but it is probably the final time of 2020.....
Yours, Craig

A Chevy II rear axle is at least 6" narrower than the one in a 1964 full size car, so I'm guessing that those cables aren't even close.

The rear brake cable you're looking for is P/N 383030 and is unique to the 1964 Olds full size cars. I can guarantee that no one makes reproductions for such a limited market, despite what a catalog may say. Craig is probably your best bet.
