Wanted: D-4 Pony Motor Throttle Rod was created by qipp

I need a throttle rod assembly for a 1945 D-4 pony motor. All I currently have is the linkage from the carb to the governor. Makes it a pain to operate the throttle :lol:

I also could use the choke knob if anyone has a spare.

Do not know how this works, my first usage of the site. The mount that holds the linkage near the knobs has 8B3978 cast in it.

Cabernet I think you have the one I need, mine has the same number cast on it. Here is a photo. I'll send a private message.

I never heard back from cabernet so I am still looking for a throttle rod assembly and choke knob for the pony motor. Does anyone know where I can find one?

Since I've not had any luck finding a throttle rod, does anyone know of a dealer or salvage yard that might have one in stock? Can anyone post a photo of the rod? There is a slim chance it might still be around but I'm not sure what I am looking for. Thanks
