WTB: Throttle rod for 1970 C10.
Looks like the bracket/pivot point on the stock throttle rod on my 70 is somehow cracked. I noticed the pedal felt funny and I noticed the part that lies under the throttle pedal was flopped to the right towards the tunnel.... I looked at the bracket that bolts to the firewall on the engine side and moved the throttle and it appears to be cracked. I am talking about the part that goes through the firewall. I don't need the part that connects to the carb etc...
So for now, until I can find one of the adapter plates to use the 71-72 throttle assemblies, I want to just replace what I have. I've seen packages of multiples of these rods plus other stuff for cheap. But only need the one part. Please let me know what you have.

I don't have mine removed since technically it still works and the engine covers it pretty well. So I found a picture someone else posted. I hope they don't mind. It is the rod that goes through the firewall in the pics at the link above. The green firewall. Does that help?
