Just as a For your information, we have these photos that try to
illustrate how those cables wind through and attach to the control levers.
Tough to get right if you don¹t take careful notes as to exactly how they
came apart, which they can do without notice sometimes, messin-around with
the valve and whoops the cable falls out, and Where did that come from?

     I am the original owner and this has not been on the road for nearly
     30 years. It is a 1974 L and I never had any of the typical issues
     with the vehicle. I drove it every day in the Summer to work and
     around town. Just before I parked it the heater valve became
     difficult to operate.

   >>>Be very careful, because the original levers on an L-model are cheap
   plastic, and break easily.
   Remove the driver's side kick panel (next to the throttle pedal) and
   see if you can actuate the valve by hand.  It should move fairly
   freely.  If it's become stiff, it could stand to be replaced.
   Disconnect the cable from the valve to test to ensure that binding
   isn't confined to the cable, instead of the valve, before tearing into
   the heater.
   I'm excited to hear about an original Pantera (and original owner)
   returning to the road!  Tell us more about your car--where are you
   located?  Photos would be great too!
   Welcome back!
