yup, that's the one I want. can't get under my car right now, but want to
have the new cable ready when I can. That's why I would like the length.
I will solder on the starter connector, run the length of the car, pull
through the back bulkhead and then solder the battery end on. Then I can
make up the short switch cable and I'll be good to go, when my car is back
on the road under it's own power sometime in late spring if all goes well
with the restoration :)
