Default 1965 Speedo Cable Install

Hey All:

I'm pulling back together a restoration on a '65 coupe. I'm routing the speedometer cable from a C4 back to the dash and don't know where it goes through the firewall. Does anyone have a picture or description of where the cable goes through the firewall? Thanks in advance for the help.

it goes through right above the stainless steel master cylinder I have in the picture on my '68. i'd imagine it would be similar for a '65

Hello. Here's a picture of where it should come through the firewall. I have a couple of arrows pointing at it and put a little green stripe on the speedo cable itself. If you are standing in front of the car, facing the firewall, it will be down and to your left of where the steering column goes through. Hope that helps.
