You could speak to Speedycables- they'll make one up. It looks like you'll needs some kind of bracket near the rear axle to hold the outer of the handbrake cable....

IIRC Escorts had a rod to one side backplate lever from a flexible bracket connected to the cable.. It may be possible to adapt something like a pair of Allegro cables?
