    Looking for pointers to on-line sources for (teflon?) lined brake and
    shift cables. I'm vintage guy, so I'm not too particular about
    specific (current) brands; reasonable prices and reasonable quality
    and performance are good things.

    My Brakes are Weinmann center or side pulls. Shifting is all
    friction/downtube so gears are housing free except on the ft
    derailleur at the seat tube and rear derailleurs at the rear stay.

    or ebay:

    You won't need SIS type housing for your friction derailleurs. For shifters,
    the 1.2 mm stainless, die-drawn wires from QBP will work fine. Yes, get
    teflon lined brake housings.
