Mechanical throttle linkage...UPDATE!

What's with this metric shit?

Nice job, I never thought of tubing. That's a great idea.

 

Nice job...looks good.

 

Good observation. A 3/16" was too big for a 1/4" brake line, so I went with 6.0 metric. Leaves a little more meat for threading. Also, believe it or not, my cable set up from AutoBone was metric. Took me all night to figure that out.

 

Since this article is about mechanical throttle linkage, does anyone have any photos of the backside of the accelerator and the portion from the firewall to the first connection? I have a 1950 fleetline and am attempting a restore, but I cannot find that information.

Found a replacement pedal (original was completely rusted), but I have no idea how to connect it, or if I am missing any bits or pieces.

Was just looking into cables, but I like this a whole lot better. Great job!
