Julian, those sliding-caliper Wilwood 'spot-brakes' are what I've been using since '95 with no complaints, except- 1- you need to fabricate your own mounts to the Pantera uprights, and -2- the main pad and backing plate have no anti-rattle spring so they are a bit noisy on bumpy roads. There is a minor adaption to be done to the Pantera handbrake cable ends to better fit the Wilwood lever. And for those not into fabrication, Marino Perna at Pantera East has been selling his own version -complete with his sliding bracket- since about '97. Marino's assembly fits both the Pantera and Viper. FWIW- J DeRyke

Dan,
I am aware of the IPSCO solution, which is a step above the 'silly kart
things' as I was thinking more of the cheaper variant Wilwood spot
calipers;

There is a requirement in the UK MOT test for the handbrake to bring
the rear wheels to a stop against the force of a rolling road and
without a certain level of imbalance between sides. I wsa trying to
convey (poorly) that I don't think many of the options owners revert to
in the US would meet the demands of the test, and I think that might
include the OEM setups in many US based Pantera's.

That looks like it would work as well as many OEM set ups I've seen. Some
of those are simply tiny mechanically actuated drum brakes that use the
inside of the hub as the braking surface.
