Unscrew from the transmission... but have something clean to collect it in, it's very slippery and floppy. Use molybdenum disulphide grease of graphite. Push back in and twist the end and have someone confirm the speedometer needle jumps, if not, spin the other direction. This will show the cable has connected to the gauge. Now connect the ferule on the end, into the receiver on the pinion sleeve. Slip the outer cable back on and tighten it. 

 

Inspect the outer cable for damage and tape it up to keep crap out. Order a new one. A cable from another '70s vehicle will work but only if it is the same or longer in length.
