The gas tank sending unit cover hole has not yet been cut into the reproduction rear floor pan.

And we now have a hole where there wasn’t one before, amazing! You will notice the rumble seat retainer and water dam has been temporally installed to the rear floor pan there are two small clips that hold the rear rumble seat in place that need to be spot welded to the dam.

Rumble seat retainer clips, I must thank Douglas Grant from FordBarn for sending me an original clip from his original 34 roadster that he is currently restoring so that I can reproduce them.

These clips were obviously heat treated at the factory because they are very hard and hold their shape.

I bought some 4140 annealed steel to reproduce the clips and will have them heat treated in the next few weeks. I will add a few photos when they are installed to the rear dam.
