Never seen a parking brake on a Spridget with double bearing hubs.  No room f=
or the standard mechanism.  Might be easier to engineer something that grabs=
 the driveshaft.

Time to fit 8 inch drums and not have that equalising bar.  Or modify to
fit.  Over here there's no need for a handbrake on a hillclimb car because
the starter's assistant holds the car with a wedge under one of the back
wheel/tyres.
