I guess the later A's MIGHT have been different, but I'd bet they are the same. 62" is essentially the same as the 60 I measured, because I didn't try to get ALL the curves out of the cable. I just got it as straight as I could, so it's close, not exact. It also has different ends on it than the later cars with a clip-on end on the speedo side.

How does one go about making their own cables? I need a custom cable for a project I'm working on, and fabbing it myself would be nice.

I just bought a longer cable that had the right ends and then picked up a cheapo kit from the parts store that has the inner spring cable part and crimp on ends. The housing can be disassembled easily and shortened, then match the new cable to length and crimp on the end. All in all it was like 30 dollars from the parts store.
