throttle cable 1939 chevy coupe

Can someone tell me where the the throttle cable that goes to the dash is connected on the carbuetor?

Don't know if its the same or not - but - I have a 48 Fleetmaster. My hand throttle cable is mounted to a bracket and clamp on the side of the carb facing the firewall. The wire inside the cable goes through the hole in the rod that works the carb 's throttle arm. Then there's a stop with a set screw on the end of the wire to retain it.

Thanks for the information, that's the way i thought it might go. Do you really need that throttle cable, i would think that was something to have in the winter when the engine was cold. Do you use your?

On my 1933 Chevrolet I have used the throttle knob like a poor mans cruise control, but only if I am on a rather straight open road with no traffic.

Yes, I use mine. I live in hills - so I use the hand throttle to get started at red lights when I'm going uphill. Keeps me from rolling backwards into some idiot setting 3 inches from my back bumper.
