I bought some nos choke and throttle cables for my cabover (said they were good for ALL 1950 Chevy trucks), but the choke cable was way too short. I don't think there's a way to swap the knob on to a longer cable, so does anyone know where to shop for coe specific C & T cables?
Thanks in advance,
-Scott

You will probably have to make your own choke cable. I have never seen aftermarket cables for the COE and never have seen NOS ones. For my 1950 Chevy COE a friend helped me and took the standard aftermarket cable, removed the knob and put it on a longer cable. I think he used epoxy to glue it on and it took two tries before we had success. I would really like to find an original or NOS cable that is useful.
