All of my pictures related to the disassembly of the car or the components were lost when an external hard drive failed. Help! 7450020-clip1.jpg (103 downloads)

Similar as you said but the one on the radio is much thinner..(this is a '69 GTX radio support) 7450152-DSC04690rs.jpg (54 downloads)

Really looks like a cable clamp for a aftermarket choke cable. 72 Satellite Sebring Plus 440, 72 Dart 5.9 4-spd, 68 Valiant, 73 W200, 78 D100 sb, 78 D200, 98 DAKOTA, .

Never seen that part before. I assume it was added for a choke or something similar. 70 Road Runner 383-4 4 speed FJ5 & black guts 70 Charger R/T 440-4 4 speed FJ5 & white guts
