Long shot, but looking for some used/discarded Gen 1 grey mercury gear shift cables.
They aren't going in a boat, have another use for the inner core.
If anyone has swapped some out and got the old ones lying around, would be interested.
Thanks

Yep.
Useful for rigging marlin lures. Not saying anymore. Just need the cables.
You won't need them down there - so if there are any spare in the deep south, they are better off with me.

That may well work.
But I am hunting this stuff down for a very experienced gamefishing mate. This is his preference.
