The parking brake on the old C models was a pulley looking sheave & wedge assy in the bellhousing. They didn't work to well even when brand new- stopped working altogether once worn. There is an adjustment inside the bellhousing at the wedge assy- just wouldn't count on an adjustment being the culprit.

Replacing the wedge assy is quite an undertaking- you have to work from under the truck, up through a hole in the bellhousing- doable but tricky & time consuming.
