texasz Posted July 21, 2005 Share #13 Posted July 21, 2005 I have something interesting on the pedal for the hand throttle as well. I believe that I can prove that the cable was the same length for both RHD and LHD cars. If you look at the location of all the parts it seems as though the LHD would need a longer cable...but I have a pedal that came with my hand throttle which shows how this was fixed so that the same cable length could be used. The pedal is an OEM part (not something that was fabricated) from the same car that the hand throttle and center console were pulled from.I will shoot a pic and post it this weekend. Check back...

Go240Zags Posted July 21, 2005 Author Share #14 Posted July 21, 2005 Yes, I have been following these auctions for hand throttles, I don't know why I keep thinking they will sell for less. I guess my question was more about adding a fabricated mechanical part to the other side of the choke holder (for lack of a better word) under the floor console. Then, if you want, running a throttle cable to the pedal. Somewhere I have the throttle knob, but can't remember if it is round or square. I bought it in an auction that described it as a choke knob, but definately has the symbol shown in the pictures that have been posted. I remember double checking a photo of a choke/hand throttle set up I had saved on my computer.
