After running the brake lines, I remembered that I forgot the parking brake! It’s a little two piece valve that locks the fluid in the brake lines. First I had to determine where to mount the valve(s) and then make a pad. Then I just needed two screws to hold it in place.
When the lever (top) is towards the back, the brakes are locked. When it’s forward, the brake pedal are active. I couldn’t connect the brake lines yet because I don’t have 3/16″ elbows. But they’re on order.
I’m going to activate the valve by means of the rigid link from the valve to a simple lever mounted on the bottom edge of the instrument panel.
