Hello y'all. I need some help. I'm trying to find an assembly with the tensioners, cables, etc. I have a new electric motor, but the tensioners and cables need to be replaced. Where can a person find these?? Thanks in advance!!

I'd check with Roger in Kansas. He's listed in our listings of salvage yards known to have '57 Fords. JFYI:...The cable and pulleys are unique to '57's....'58's are different. If Roger doesn't have them, any of the other sources listed may, except I think the Desert Valley cars maybe are too stripped out to still have them. I've been to Roger's place, I didn't see the 40 or 50 cars he told another member he had, but he definetly has at least 20, and not too awfully stripped.
I can do this, I can do this, I, well, maybe

The cables can be made with hardware store steel cable and crimp sleeves. I've done it but sorry don't have any photos or documentation.

I have a complete set that is in excellent condition, have even been media blasted.  The baffles were not included. I think I paid around $60 on Ebay.  Always think we need spares.  Time to get rid of spares now that car is finished.  You can call me at 406-491-2882.  I will be leaving for AZ on the 2nd.  Tom.
