cable from starter to frame
I was having problems starting my car and decided to check all the connections of my starter. I discovered that the cable that goes from the starter to the frame was in need of replacement. Where can I buy a new cable? Thanks for the help.

If it runs from frame to starter it is a ground cable. Any heavy duty cable will work. The local parts supply house should have battery cables with eyes on both ends.
Most of the time the starter doesn't have a ground. The ground for the motor is not run at the starter?

Lectric limited has them. Probably also any of our sponsor partrs houses (Volunteer Vette) will sell them.
On my 68, the starter is grounded via the engine. There's a grounding cable from the engine to the frame.
