Apparently, Jim Carter Truck parts and Classic Parts of America have discontinued the reproduction cable and knob due to a problem of keeping the chrome on the knob. The Filling Station has this cable and knob. Has anyone purchased this cable and knob for a 1947-1952? Any other thoughts about where to find a quality reproduction cable and knob?

The heater isn't in the truck yet. I believe the L-shaped bracket resides just to the left of the steering column under the dash? So I don't know the exact length of the cable. | | | | | Joined: Oct 2016 Posts: 916 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Oct 2016 Posts: 916 | On my '51 it was to the left of the column Heater control cable
