Newbie question about linkage near firewall

Hello all!

I have a '69 Mk2 with an automatic transmission and recently removed the radiator because my timing cover was leaking. While back there, I saw these two linkages. Can anyone tell me what they are and where they go? I have a feeling the longer arm ties somewhere near the carb, but not sure.

Thanks for any help!!

That's the kickdown linkage for the transmission, when you floor it the transmission will kick down a gear if it doesn't make the rpms go too high
