[T3] Posting for a friend any ideas?

[[[3) Last resort. find another car from the same era and with the same
release lever. and see how the cable hooks to the latch. Drill a hole in the
front of the body such that you can lever the release with a
screwdriver. ]]]

Before I drilled any holes, I would try another idea. I've never tried this
idea, but if I had this problem on our '72; I would first unbolt the front
bumper and slide it out with it's tubular reinforcement. After moving the
plastic bellows aside, I would figure out a way to get a makeshift tool up
thru these openings and pull on the latch release arm.
I would spend ALOT of time trying this before I went drilling any holes ;-)
