Thanks Bob, it seems this is one of the many variations of e-brake cables. Yours has the threaded ends on one side, and a ball on the other. The ones I am looking for have a clevis on one end and a guide piece to guide it through the brake backplate.

Although it may be possible to reengineer your cables, I'd rather use NOS or have a cable manufacturer start from scratch.
