Topic: Speedo cable @ firewall

[Brian Conway]

Speedometer cable for a 69, NJ, four speed car with drag pack adapter.  Existing; empty plastic loop just about the middle of the firewall and 3" above the RF brake line.  One ' C ' shaped strap with hex head screw attaching to the tunnel on the passenger side just above the bell housing.  Is there another clip location on the firewall somewhere ? The only solid attachment, now, is the ' C ' clamp/strap in the tunnel.  Thanks,  Brian

I think there should be another retainer (metal, screwed on) close to the steering column area.  Sorry, I don't have a picture handy and I'm not home to take one.

Thanks Jim for the reply.  Now at least I know where to be looking.  The speedo cable goes through the plastic loop ?   A photo of the clip/clamp,  @ steering wheel area,  and the type of screw would be great.  Brian

Hope this helps - screw looks to be the same/similar to the ones holding the brake lines in place (Pic from 9T02R1601xx)

Thats the one.  Great photo showing location/position, screw and clip.  Thanks Jeff.   Brian
