Question 1960 1002 Hand Brake Conundrum

Hello, I have a 1960 1002 2WD LWB GMC 1/2 ton pickup truck. The Hand brake operates when the rear axle is lifted. When released, the truck will back up, but the brakes lock down when put in drive. I disconnected the Hand brake front cable and the truck drove fine. The hydraulic brakes operate perfectly, but the hand brake seems to have issues. How can the truck only roll in reverse and not forward? I ordered NOS cables, but have yet to add them to the confusion. Any ideas readily accepted and appreciated.
