I also have an item I'm not sure what it's for just to the left of the steering column under the dash.  It's seems to be an off/on switch for something, but does not affect anything that I can see.  It's a red knob that looks like it should light up if the car overheated or something to that effect.  Any idea?  It's a '66 140 conv with A/C.

Sounds like it. On an non-turbo car, they were simply taped back, as the
buzzer was not installed. It would normally have been mounted above the
headlight dimmer switch.

If I know my Corvair wiring, (not a guarantee) that buzzer was for CHT on
turbos.

While re-installing the instrument cluster in my 65 Corsa convertible,
I���ve come 
cross two wires that seem to go nowhere.  Or at least I can���t figure out
where.  
merging from the wire bundle which comes through the front fire wall on the 
ide  are two wires attached to a ���T��� shaped plastic connector.  One off
the 
onnector���s slots is empty.  One wire is green/white and the other is
black/red.  
he wires are relatively short which limits where they might connect.
?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /> 
ooking at Figures 40 (page 12-190 and Figure 42 (page 12-20) (Item 11) in
the 
5 shop manual leads me to believe these wires go to a warning buzzer. 
However, 
 can���t find any such buzzer.

ny help?
