$2400 later....does it look any different? Options

[billh1963]

Some may remember (if you are totally bored and spend all your time on this forum) that I bought this Zambezi Green '74 just before Christmas. It was bought it sight unseen so you never know what you are going to get.

The seller was pretty good about describing the rust issues and that the carbs would need to be adjusted for sea level. What he did not mention was that the transmission was in need of some serious work.

So, I took the car to a local Porsche indie (the Eastern racers on this forum know him...Bob Woodman ...the tire guy) and $2400 later I have a rebuilt transmission from Dr. Evil installed (Thank you, Mike), new T/O bearing, a new RMS and other seals, and fully synchronized carbs. Here's the "new" look!

I've driven the car around 50 miles today and I'm very pleased. The remaining work:
1. Adjust the clutch - the clutch engages/disengages right at floor. I would like for it to engage right in the middle of the range. Which way do I need to adjust the cable at the transmission end to make that happen?
2. The clutch cable tube is loose and is actually up in the tunnel. I guess the only way to get that fixed is to get access to the tunnel and get the tube back in place?

The car back at home:
