Obscure accelerator cable

I cant find any info on this thing any where! Its a 30" cable with ball recepticals on both ends, it has swaged on brackets... I have called every spot I could think of! It is for a 1974 grumman step van. 4spd with a 300l6
I will insert photos in a minute.

Yes, it appears to be an accelerator cable. What's it off from?

Im afraid that is probably a custom setup for your grumman
most likely no longer avail.
on a 76 e150 I know it had one end like yours
and the other was a swagged ball type to hook
the pedal


for muddyaxles; read his post please

Sorry, I assumed it was found on something other than what is was made for. So, do you ned a new one, what? Since those Grummans are aluminum, they probably got scrapped pretty quick when the drive train wore out.

Nobody can fabricate something for you?
