This is a tough problem, and a warning for everyone else who's cable hasn't 
been looked at lately.

Where is it broken? Are you sure that it's broken or is this just a guess 
because the lever no longer seems to do anything?  

NOTE to everyone who has a 69 or later: There is supposed to be a screw 
that passes thru the side of the glove compartment and bolts the lever base 
to a tab sticking out from the dash. If this screw is missing, as it often is, 
then the glove compartment will gradually be destroyed.

If yours is missing FIX IT NOW! This is a LOT easier than trying to replace 
the glove compartment later.
