Re: WTB Throttle Cable/Original Knob
There's an interesting Ebay post..."3pcs VINTAGE AIRCRAFT CESSNA THROTTLE CABLE with WOODEN KNOB BOX#3S". I don't believe any of the 3 are "our" knobs, but you might take a look just in case. (Ebay Item # 402307380792) Mac

Re: WTB Throttle Cable/Original Knob
I'd speculate if they are Cessna they might have come from a Airmaster

Re: WTB Throttle Cable/Original Knob
Hi Jon,
Wel I tried to send a pm, bt anyway, here it is:
I do have a cable and knob. However, since my IA made me replace it with a new one, and at the time, I wanted to use the knob, so I had to use a 1/4-24UNC helicoil for the new one. I have sold the plane and kept the knob and old cable. I now need to replace the helicoil with a 1/4-20 helicoil to fit the old cable. If you are till interested, let me know.
