Choke cables for tri-carb

Hi All,
Just discovered this forum - it looks great.
Does anyone know of a source for choke cables for a Healey tri-carb (the secondary cables that attach to the carbs)? Moss Motors' catalog has a picture of them, but says they're unavailable. Should I just head down to the bike shop and have some made up? Thanks!
 
You might give Bill Bolton a call. He specializes in tri-carbs. (541)895-5576 or his email: tricarb@aol.com
 
I got them through British Car Specialists. However, I am missing the lever mechanism to pull the 3 cables -- apparently lost during the 30 years that the car has been a basket case.

Problem solved. Went to the local bike shop and they set me up. 5 mm casing with Teflon-coated derailler cable - they slide very smoothly. My thanks to you guys and to Bill Bolton. Paul H
