Could someone post some photos of the correct throttle linkage for a 59 with a 352 engine and Cruiseomatic transmission? I would like to see how it is supposed to look and how the springs are attached.

I have some pictures but I'm unable to post them for some reason, if you send me your e-mail address I will send them to your e-mail address.

Thanks Ford Only, I just sent an email. Is there a source to buy the correct throttle springs or is it just hit and miss guesswork at the hardware store in trying to find the correct tensions/lengths?

I would contact Jerry Miller, they restore these cars and should be able to help.
