    Vent Cable installation-63 Vett

    I am installing a LH (driver side) fresh air vent cable on my 1963 corvette. (The car was missing the Vent Grill and Cable when I bought it.) The car does not have A/C. The question I have is the holes in the dash for the cable bracket are about 1/2 furhter apart (wider) than the holes in the bracket. There is also a square cut out in the dash above where the bracket would mount. The holes and cut out look clean, so I don't think it was done aftermarket, but can't be sure.

    Am I missing some part which needs to be intstalled on the dash before screwing the bracket to the dash? I can't seem to find any mention of such part on any of the schematics I have looked at.

    Also does the vent cable go above or below the hood release cable? I have seen schematics which show it both ways. Thanks. My first post, hope it is clear.

    This link to a summer 2008 post might help as to location of LH vent pull. Picture on left for '65 non-A/C cars. Scroll down to post # 10 for the pics.

      Wayne,
      Thanks for post and pics. The first photo is exactly the situation I have. Someone must have taken the tab out of the dash as would be required for a air car headlight switch placement. I will have to replace the tab to locate the LH vent bracket in the correct location.
