My handle is broken right in the middle of the black plastic handle. I've tried JB weld but it just broke again.
Is it the same handle for 69-82 Vettes?
It didn't break off completely, just the front half of the black plastic hand grip.
I am kinda in the same boat. Miy button flew off and I think there was also a spring that came out and it is lost. I found a NOS handle assembly from a Chevy dealer but the handle is different than mine. It is smooth and must be from a later C3 I am going to remove mine and try to repair.
bump 😎

Does anyone know besides the black button if there is a spring and washer that goes behind the button? If so, where can acquire? Thanks!!
The C3VR parts auction on our site will have them. Just be patient, and persistent. One will show up.

Just out of curiosity I took a peek at the eBay link on the Shop menu. Clicked on the Braking System link and then the Emergency Brake link (it probably should read Parking Brake instead). I modified the search criteria to broaden the search a bit (my changes are in bold red):
corvette ("emergency brake", "parking brake", e-brake) (handle, lever) (68,69,70,71,72,73,74,75,76,77,78,79,80,81,82,C3)
A bunch of new and used handles and assemblies showed up.
Good luck...!!!
Car15 and I have been in contact and I will send him my old handbrake if he wants it.

You’re the Man Gary! I really appreciate it! I will try to repair mine with some of your parts!
Received the handle Gary! It looks like all I need is the spring from the push button. I will add the spring to mine and epoxy the button back on the shaft. It should work. If anyone else needs parts from the hand brake assy I can send, just pay the shipping. Thanks again Gary and all others that helped!
Excellent!
