Subject: [Tigers] 1966 MK 1A Tiger questions

Hello all, Questions abound while trying to put the 1966 MK 1A 2193 Tigerback together.    
   - Hood latch is it body color or other
CAD (OR ?) PLATED.. SILVERISH COLOR
   - Hood release, is it cable or rod and if rod, how to attach to release – special clevis pin.
DEPENDS ON VIN.. I THINK YOURS S/B CABLE
   - Grill center badge bracket – what does bottom of bracket bolt to
SCREWS TO TOP OF VALENCE.. INSIDE GRILL AREA
   - Brill center badge bracket – body color or gloss black
PROBABLY SATIN BLACK
   - Trunk or engine area – are there any lights or is only light inside the glove box
NO.. YES (OUTSIDE BUT AT TOP OF CUBBY BOX)
   - Blower switch location in dash.  #1 aux lamp if fitted – far left hole in dash.
OVER ON THE LEFT.. NOT SURE..

   - Blower motor – single or 2 speed
BELIEVE YOURS WOULD BE 2 SPEED
   - Defroster vent hoses fit ‘inside’ of metal vents – how held in place – clamps or tape and if tape diameter and color.
FIT OUTSIDE, JUST SLIP FIT IIRC.  THERE IS AT LEAST SOME RUBBER RIGHT ANGLE PIECES THAT COUPLE THEM
   - Slide temp control and floor defroster settings – how are they held in place
SCREWS TO BACK OF DASH
   - Wood dash tapered heads to hold dash in place – Phillips tapered head, 1-1/2 or 1-1/4 inch long – are these stainless steel.  SS sells the far right one but not sure of the others.
NOT SURE.  THEY ARE PHILLIPS HEAD AND ALMOST SHINEY BLACK
   - Wood dash – steering column area – 1 hole on either side of column opening – what are they for.
THERE IS A "u" OR "C" SHAPE METAL PIECE WITH TWO STUDS ON BACK THAT GO IN THE HOLES AND HOLD IT IN PLACE
YOURS SHOULD BE VINYL GRAIN BLACK I THINK
   - Lower valance – 2 captive nuts on either side of center opening – what are they for.
LICENSE PLATE BRACKET
   - Passenger lower front fender, there are 2 holes in body – 1 small then a larger one just beneath – what goes here.
CHRYSLER PENTASTAR
 When it takes a number of years to reconstruct, memory fadesand with multiple folks not taking picture and notes while I had to work – my fault,so thanks in advance.
YUP, KNOW HOW THAT GOES!
