Heater Control / Knob / Cable needed

Anyone parting out a 68+ Spridget. I need a Heater Control assembly and Heater Control Knob. Also looking for a cable as well that is not all rusted up.

I managed to score one last week and proceeded to crack the knob and then managed to lose the little retainer pin that holds the knob on. The Heater control knob BTW has a spring loaded clip and is easily removable by using a small nail / compass point to press in the spring loaded retainer clip

If anyone has one of these to spare please let me know.

An after market choke cable from autozone or such can be used to replace the old one.

Thanks Jack,

I can probably get the cable to work but I managed to crack the great knob I was able to pick up and then managed to lose the little retainer pin that holds the knob on so my new air valve control that the cable connects to is useless as well without the retainer pin. See what happens when you try to rush things.

Anyone got a heater control air valve knob and control that the cable connects to that they want to give up.
