Craig, try marineengine.com This site deals pretty much with pre-WW2 antique marine engines |

Craig � are you referring to the boots that cover the exposed cable, where it exists the transom and runs to the nozzle? If so, the stuff that Buehler used is basically brake line boot. If you bring the measurements to a place like NAPA, and ask them to look through some various parking cable boots, you�ll find something close (maybe that's the route you're already going). It�s worth some good rubber treatment on that stuff as it�ll dry up and crack in the sun (probably what became of your originals). |
