<VV> 65 Corsa Dash - how to remove clock, + chock adjustment

[D. Barry Ellison]

#1 It's time to build a completely working, better looking dash for my 65 
Corsa.  How do you remove the clock from the glass w/o breaking anything?  
Specifically the time adjuster knob sticking thru the glass.  It's got a 
tiny slot in the tip.  Is that a screw head and you hold onto the shaft with 
needle nose pliers?

#2 While adjusting the choke on my right carb (same car) I'm pushing the 
choke pulloff so it's fully depressed while pushing the choke plate shaft 
plate gently against that rod.  The rod is supposed to be bent to adjust the 
choke plate.  My rod is completely straight and it's still too wide.  Only 
thing I can do is lengthen the hole in the choke pull off so it doesn't 
close the choke so far.  If I take out too much I can always adjust the rod 
again.  It's an aftermarket (almost new) choke pull off, metal base.  Just 
wondering why my parts don't match.  Seems odd to me.

Thanks,

blasted cold to me to work on cars, therefore I'm inside re-working a dash 
til lunchish.
