[Renzo-SF]

The parking brake lever on my '67 GTV keeps jumping up when I release it. Sometimes the rear brakes seem to be on, but sometimes not, when the lever is released. Generally, I just keep releasing the handle a few times as I start off driving and it soon settles down and stops springing up. But the other day I'd applied the emergency brake at a stop light, and then stalled the car when the light turned green because the rear brakes were obviously still engaged when I released the handle and started to pull away.

An emergency/parking brake is pretty much essential to driving and parking in San Francisco so I need to get this sorted. I will tell you that the parking brake cable is genuine Alfa and less than 5 years old, so I believe that should have some life left? Oh--and I do still have the original Dunlop brakes. All thoughts and suggestions welcomed (but please don't tell me to switch to ATE)!
