Does anyone know where to purchase a ferrule with similar dimensions and design as the OE throttle cable? The PO of this car cut the end off to fit the single weber he had on it and its something I've been meaning to replace. I have a crimper already. Mostly I just don't feel like replacing the whole cable because its otherwise in great condition. Thank you!

Heavy duty bike cables work really well in a pinch. bike shops will also cut them while you wait and you can ask that the ferrule not be clamped to the sheathing, allowing you to further manipulte/fine tune the length.

I just used one on a 1946 Triumph roadster. worked perfectly.
