I'm planning a car with the handbrake on the front wheels, so a traditional handbrake lever seems wrong. What cars had a handbrake lever in the
dash?
Are dash handbrake levers SVAable?
2CV/Dyane had umbrella handle just under the dash
the indestructable toyota hi-lux.
thats the only one i know of.

My grandfather had the coolest car in the world or at least we thought so as kids...knobs n buttons everywhere weird sticky out indicators you had to flick a switch left or right to operate,even a push button to start it...handbrake was next to the steering wheel...Wolsley 444! cooler than owt that was.

Don't some Cateringvans have a dash handbrake?
Ford Corsair (if you can find one)
If you wanted front calipers with a handbrake setup try Xantia's!
Early XJ6
Renault 4
Lotus Elan! I just happen to have one of these handbrake levers I was going to use it on my build but ended up using a Range Rover one instead. U2U me
if you want it.
If you stick it in the "safe area" around the sterering wheel it should not cause SVA problems.

FWIW,
The mighty GT40 also had the handbrake under the dash....
Nissan pick up, we have one at work but damned if I know what model. It's not too old though.

My twin cam Lotus Europa back in the 70's used to have one.

Dax rush uses it so it must be SVA'able
