Good luck! Bill W
Good to know Bill - it appears based on what I saw last night that there is one clip near the rear seat body mount that is fastened from the top and would be difficult (maybe not impossible) to remove and replace? Is that the only one?

That is the screw I have raised the body 1/2-3/4" to remove. It also gives a little "wiggle" room to maneuver the line around. Amazing what less than an inch of clearance can do to make a job go better.

Apparently there IS a difference from '67 to the later Chevelles. Only snap-in clips for the brake line on a '67, all easily accessible. Sorry!
