To my surprise, only little of the cable is a real cable, as there is a tube going through the firewall up to the throttle pedal. Exit new cable, and made me my own by use of a cable initially meant for one of my Alfa Romeo’s. Is this tube something only pushbuttons have?

Thanks,
Kid.

If you are talking the metal tube that goes through the firewall in front of the engine, my 71 had one that was about 6” long. The old cable went through it on its way through the console. I cut the tube out of the firewall to install the new cable.
