71 442 throttle cable sleeve and bushing

Need bushing and sleeve for original throttle cable end / Q jet set up (455 / 4bbl). While I have researched previous threads on this and found some possible sources for the bushing and sleeve, most of the threads are a few years old. Does anyone have source for these that wont make you pay twice the cost of the item for shipping? ( i.e. the parts place or opgi). Lord these tiny parts are maddening sometimes ! Thanks

Finally found rebuild kit (bushing, sleeve and clip) on inline tube's ebay store for 10.00 and free shipping. Its high enough but I needed it. Thanks

If spending $10 is a problem, you may want to have another hobby that is much less expensive.....

Look at it this way, there are worse ways to spend your money with nothing to show for it.
