Electrical: Ground cable

[rkapteyn]

I found this ground cable in a box of Avanti parts I found in the warehouse.
Does anyone recognize this ground cable?
Was it used in Avanti's?
It is 21 inches long and 1/4" thick.

Nope, but it may have been used to hold the tailgate of a Chevy truck open!!!!!!

You can never have too many ground cables...

I agree. This is a structural cable, one used to hold something in place. It does not look like an electrical cable.

There were a number of them on an Avanti. Engine to frame and engine to Passenger compartment. Would have to dig out my Parts catalog to get any numbers.

It is definately an electrical cable It is tin plated copper.
Here is a better shot of the terminal on both sides.

That five incher is definitely a Stude ground cable used in various places....But the first one (the 21 incher) isn't Studebaker related.
