So, can you get most of this stuff at a junkyard, hardware, and parts stores?

what you have to do is pull or cut off the cable holder away from the throttle body itself.DO NOT Break the holder for the gas cable and the curise. then takea piece of angle iron and weld another flat piece of metal on the end then weld it to the throttle body were you took off the cable holder.You have to make sure you get the angle just right welding it on there of it will not tune the throttle arm it will pull it stright back and break it.

Then you drill 2 holes in the cable holder and the metal at the end of the new arm and bolt it in. you can weld the bolts in place if you want.

I will get the size and everything for you in the morning
