Ok guys,
back at work trying to bring the 73 4 cylinder back to life. I used the trashed floorboard as a template , and used marine plywood to re-make it. Came out good in my opinion. So I have it back in place, but the plates holding it in place are long gone by the PO - who didn't think retaining removed parts was very important - obviously. I'm not making a concourse car - just want a fun canyon carver I can drive a couple of times a week.

so anyone use a wide (fender washer ) as a replacement? if so, was it suitable?

alternately if I can find an accurate drawing I can fab one up pretty quick, but i don't have any reference to work off of other that the crummy Black and white photo in a Haynes manual thats as old as the car!

and anyone know the dimensions of the bolts?

thanks in advance everyone

cheers

You can use a bolt and washer to hold it down. Nit as fancy as the OEM, but will work.

Also have the pedal stop if you need it.

I believe those are pan-head screw M6 X 15 - from my PET catalog - Page 217.

Download a version in .pdf - it's really helpful.

(this one has different page numbers than mine but you'll figure it out...)

EDIT:
here's a couple of the plates on ebay:

Thanks guys. at 10 bucks a piece, I believe I will use just a washer. Mikey i do have the pedal stip, I was able to rescue that from the original,

thanks for all the info and the links

I’m pretty sure I have a couple from the last round of plating. PM me your address and I’ll send you one. $n/c.
