Mice hole.

That's how you know its a 'barn find'

Optional shoulder harness mounting.

Thanks, since one side is just an open hole (mouse entrance ), should it have the same threaded insert/plug as the other side? Seems odd to be open to the elements.

It used to have a threaded attachment point, but they tend to rust away from the wheel well side.

Hmmmm.......no idea what happened to the photos . Anyhow, I put a couple photos back up on the original post.

After I bought the car my goal was to get it stripped down to bare metal and see what the rust damage was. The passenger side rocker needs replacing, along with the suspension pan. I have cut out the rusted parts and will have the shop I'm sending it to replace them. The floors are fine.



Engine out
