I remember a post on here where some vendors weren't selling items the correct length, etc. Can you guys let me know who sells the most accurate looking and correct fitting items?
Thanks,
EW

Neil, Curious...did you coat them with something when you were done to keep them from rusting again?

I was actually saying I couldn't find them listed on the Fine Lines site , but thanks for the link , they don't have what I need listed either .
But I dug up an old thread with the info I hope I need , hopefully they make these cables for lowly A bodies .

I wiped them down realy good with ppg dx metal conditioner so surface rust won't grow on them while they sit on the shelf. I'm thinking that maybe wiping them down with a light coat of motor oil or something like once they are installed might help keep them from getting rusty. I guess you could lightly paint them too.
That wet graphite spray seems to work good at protecting raw metal as well.

Eric that was sorted out. The issue was with the 71 and up style. I sent my original in for them to duplicate and they are now the correct length.
