Jack's Comments:

This is an exceptional reproduction of the 428 S/CJ and Boss 302 manual choke cable assembly made by a small American manufacturer.  Includes bracket.

Concours correct for the following cars:
1968 Mustang 428 CJ
1969 BOSS 302 
1970 BOSS 302
1970 428 S/CJ, (including factory-converted 1970 Shelby)

Concours notes:
To make cable more correct it should have a vinyl sleeve (sold separately) over most of the cable with a tiny crimp clamp holding the vinyl sleeve in place right before it connects to the carburetor choke mounting bracket.  <Click here> to see pictures of this vinyl covering and clip installed.

Metuchen Plant: Some owners have noted their Metuchen built BOSS 302 had the firewall cable hole around the center of the firewall, not above throttle cable. (not confirmed)

BOSS 302: Verified original measured 42 1/2" from bracket to end of cable. (see pictures below)
