Derailleur cable 70 suburban 5 speed

[momo608]

For those wanting to stock up the same seller has a package of 20 for $20 (including shipping), which is only a buck a cable: http://www.ebay.com/itm/NOS-Huret-shifting-cables-70s-Jubelee-Schwinn-Raleigh-/161433462885

No relation to me except that I have bought some myself...

I'm wondering why this did not come up in my "huret cables" search. I use all stainless cables on my restos but bought some of these anyway. Maybe I'll sell it in five years for a huge profit.

Stainless would be nice since most of the cable is exposed maybe waxing the cable will preserve appearance?

Are longer (for a 1970 5-speed Suburban) stainless shift cables available? Even if filing is necessary? I bought some a few years ago but cannot find them now. Thanks.
