Howard, you will probably find that in the case Jim describes someone simply replaced the cables with rods, this would adversely affect the braking because you would have lost the fulcrum present in the cable. The later full grilling cars have a completely different system, very short cross shaft, rod up the center of the chassis, fulcrum at rear crossmember, swivel at rear axle and straight pull girling actuators. They are very effective, here are some pictures, the rear cross member has been damaged in the last picture
