Check underneath the drivers side and make sure the cable is not busted. If the cable is good its likely your brake shoes have corroded to your drums and will need to be replaced, after you lube them and beat them off.

friggin moron, 92 corvettes have four wheel disc no drums, did you ever own a vette? check the cables, bozo was right about that. are you handy? or do you let the kids at pep boys fool around with your car? hows that for input...

Actually-the 1992 corvette uses a actuator collar which is very much like a big shoe using the rotor as a drum. The corvette parking brake handle is very different than most ebrakes: you pull it up and it retracts so you can get out of the vehicle...if you can not get it to disengage by puling it vertical and hitting the buttoning and slowly releasing to rest position, pull the drivers seat (4 bolts) and remove the ebrake cover to disengage the stuck lock mechanism in the ebrake tooth (teeth)

Brake and parking lights? Are you sure, the two aren't interconnected. Maybe it's just the brake light. If so, sounds like a bad brake light switch. If you step on the brakes and the brake and parking (sometimes called running lights) lights come on it sounds like you have a real problem. Suggest you have it checked right away.
