What kind of speedo cable!

I've never had a speedo cable. Does anyone have experience with what kind of speedo cable will work on a '68 FJ40 with an aftermarket Autometer speedometer? I'm never going to find a FJ40 at the junk yards around here to pull from...does anyone have advice? Thanks!

You will need a custom speedometer cable made. Hit the F A Q <---- (this is a link) there are threads with vendors that folks have used for this very thing located in there.
