Question Parking Brake Won't Hold Car

Hey all. Before I get my '61 inspected, I want to make sure everything checks out. In checking the parking brake, I noticed that it won't hold the car when idling, when it's in Drive or Reverse.

Well, that's not entirely true. Sometimes if I let it roll forward a few yards while in Drive, the parking brake will eventually grab. I haven't been able to replicate this behavior in Reverse.

Before I launch into this repair, any ideas what this issue might be? Thanks in advance!
