    Hi I hope someone can help here. My 1977 308 bonnet cable broke and the sleeve stop is lost. I cannot seem to find anyone who sells a replacement and now basically cannot drive the car. The part does not show up on my parts diagrams. Does anyone know somewhere I can get an adjustable cable stop similar to the ones that our Ferraris have. The stock ones are aluminum and have an allen key nut that tightens down onto the cable to hold it at the right length.

    Fairly easy to make one (drill press, tap & die set).

    or

    Try a bicycle shop.

    Yes but I don't have a set, maybe I should invest in one. Will try some local bike stores first. Thanks for the idea.
