NOS accelerator cables
« on: January 14, 2021, 01:34:58 PM »
Found two (2) Ford Service accelerator cable in the attic and was wondering the values?

First cable is C9ZZ-9A758-A (69 style with firewall attachment provision)
Second cable is C9ZZ-9A758-E (70 style)

Any insight is appreciated

Don, it all depends on which version of the service pieces they are. I think there are about 3

No dates on the packaging. These were from a Mach 1 restoration I did in the mid 80's. Is there any distinct marking to help I.D. the versions?

Thank you.

There is wire wound sleeves/housings and blackish plastic sleeves/housings.  Some 69’s have a metal retainer that is screwed to the fire wall, some are plastic even on a wire wound sleeve.  Most assembly line originals have a white plastic tube for the end that attaches to the carb and are dated there as well.  Most replacements have a black plastic tube end.
