If the cable above is otherwise (except for length) suitable, look for a company that manufactures control cables. When I wanted to shorten cables for the 15 cwt CMP trailer I used Aircraft Spruce https://www.aircraftspruce.com/categ.../controls.html and they were able to cut the existing cable assembly to the length I specified and swage a new ball onto the end.

Thanks Mike, Grant & Alex for the replies.
I am hoping to find a set of NOS cables, they must be on someones shelve somewhere? I have searched at some of the listed suppliers but not found a suitable one yet. If all fails, I will have to have a set made or adapted, possibly reusing some of the components.

I recently found a sail maker (Yacht rigging manufacturer) that can make up brake cables. The do have some ends, just not the special components. That means they can crimp the cable ends to a standard. They stock long stainless UNF threaded ends and the inner cable. This approach may not be what Hanno seeks, but may help other people.

I was about to have a set made when Jaap Rietveld found me a set in his stock. They are a wee bit longer than the originals but have the correct ends so they will work.
He has more so contact Jaap if you need any: https://www.milweb.net/go/rietveld/ DFF1B86E-55F4-4EA8-A9BE-7F06BF3662F7.jpeg
