I HAD THE SAME PROBLEM WITH MY '65. GOT A DRIFTPIN SET AT HOME DEPOT FOR ABOUT $10. GOT THE PIN ABOUT 2/3 WAY OUT AND WOULDN'T BUDGE ANY MORE. THIS WAS GOING FROM TOP DOWN AS PER INSTRUCTIONS. DECIDED TO TRY THE OTHER DIRECTION AND IT POPPED RIGHT OUT. IF THE PREVIOUS OWNER TRIED WITH WRONG SIZE DRIFT IT COULD HAVE SPREAD THE SPLIT PIN. ON THE DOWN SIDE, THIS STILL DID NOT STOP ME FROM HAVING TO HOLD THE SHIFT LEVER TO START THE CAR. THE PARK BRAKE DOESN'T DISENGAGE BY ITSELF ANYMORE THOUGH! GOOD LUCK.
