Here's the cable -

Let me know if you need assistance regarding how to install it.

Also, a word of warning, this cable does not fit Henry J despite what the ad says -
http://www.ebay.com/itm/HAND-LEVER-BRAKE-CABLE-FITS-1949-1950-KAISER-FRAZER-HENRY-J-1644-/121118536196?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&hash=item1c333a3204&vxp=mtr

Too many ebayers assume if something fits Kaiser, it also fits Henry J. Don't fall into that trap as more often than not, it is not true.

Thanks guys, $65.00 is a little pricey for a 60+ yr old  used cable for me right now.

It's $45, not $65.

Make a offer to Tzeug (terry Zeug) for the part.  If its reasonable for what he paid, he will negotiate
