Rebuilding a '72 Ghia coupe. Replacing some worn out stuff. Found that the throttle cable, clutch cable, bowen tube, and throttle cable 'conduit' are all longer for '72-'73 models. What changed? Where the pedals moved forward?? Engine moved farther back?? Both?? Then for '74 these parts changed again. Rolling Eyes
