'67 Valiant: Rebirth
Dash is out. :)
The temp control cable is retained by a disposable ring that just slides over the post on the bellcrank. Then you remove the bracket that holds the cable in place...Requires a Phillips screwdriver. Pretty easy. 7071DartGTReg cleared this up for me. :)
That's the offending cable/clip.
Now I get to remove everything under the dash, as well as probably pull all the wiring going to the rear of the car.
I think the car may be tweaked. The body panel gaps on the left side are bigger than on the right side. There's a tear where the firewall meets the transmission tunnel on the left side. The right-side package tray brace is bowed out (toward the front of the car) a bit (but is still attached to both the package tray and the floorpan) and is folded a bit where it gets close to the wheelwell. I'm not sure what would cause these conditions besides the car being bent. It was apparently drag-raced at one point, so maybe that would explain things.
I'm hoping it can be straightened, if it needs to be, but I won't know till I crawl under the car and start measuring things.
