I bought the wooden floorboard from Roy Nacewicz Enterprises LTD. www.fordscript.com the fit was excellent, exceptional quality and no modification were required. However the Steering Column Floor Plate and Transmission Cover required modifications to achieve the correct fit.
The Transmission Cover needed a slight adjustment at its curvature in order to lay flat on the outside of the bottom of the floorboard. If you look closely you can see 2 angler cuts on the front of the Transmission Cover, the cuts were then welded up and ground flush. The Transmission Cover was originally installed in the car but I suspect that it was a reproduction part and I haven’t had much luck with the fit of reproduction panels.
The Steering Column Floor Plate was modified because the steering column was not centered in its opening so cut it to fit, weld it up and grind it flush!
The reason there is a hole between the floorboard and the Steering Column Floor Plate is that there is a cover plate that fits around the steering column flush to the inside of the floorboard were the clutch and brake levers pass through. There is also a steering column rubber seal that fits between the Steering Column Floor Plate and the Cover Plate. I will show you the fit of these parts in a future update.
The Transmission Cover fastener holes were slightly off and did not line up with the holes on the floor pan as you can see in the following pictures.
The holes were filled and redrilled to fit.
Now that look much better everything fits and bolts up quite nicely.
