Good luck on your hunt! There are not many of these around. I posted on here several times looking for one before I stumbled upon one on my own.

Here are he pics. PO cut the cable when removing, but that can easily be spliced.

Jeff, Do you have any ideas on how to splice one of these? Mine has the same issue and I would like to repair it.

Re: WTB Hand Throttle Setup
 
There are couplers available to splice cables like this together, using allen set screws to secure. Don't have any leads, but I have seen similar solutions on Lokar kits.

Guys! I just came in from looking at the parts. I actually pieced them together as if in the truck, and the cable is not cut...the hand throttle operates the gas pedal by a pivot arm...pull the switch, and it depresses the gas pedal. Cable going to the carb from the pedal is missing, but the same part as on any of these trucks originally.
