Default 73 hood release cable and related parts...

I doubt that anybody is reproducing this stuff....

Those weird cable guide grommets must have been used on another car......

Any ideas?

Yes, find someone who has one, borrow it, get it scanned, 3D printed in nylon. Make a few dozen, and sell the rest.

I believe so, there might be a newer Teflon infused nylon though. I have a very nice 73 j brace if needed

Held for Ransom made a couple a few months ago, see this thread.

Unfortunately, he recently posted that he was leaving the forums. Mike has always been a big help to me here. I'm not sure what prompted his departure. I'm hoping he'll reconsider.

Not sure if you'll be able to contact him by PM here but worth a try. He might be willing to sell a couple.

John, I'm not finding where he actually made these. I'd be interested in 2 if he has them.

Noticed he goodbye post as well. Like you, not sure what the factors in leaving were/are.
