coils and points still available about $50-60 total. No idea about the shift cable.

Here at iboats, NAPA, your local OMC/BRP dealer or anywhere else that sells marine parts. They are common parts and likely in stock at your dealer.

Shift cable is a standard pre-1978 OMC cable. Also available here at iboats under Teleflex brand

I called NAPA on a similar vintage motor and they managed to get all the tune up items (points, condenser, coils, etc.) next day for pickup without any trouble.
