What's this hole?
« on: February 25, 2007 - 09:48:44 AM »
I am restoring my 70 Challenger R/T and I am trying to figure out if the hole in the picture, next to the 4 speed support backet holes, should be welded up.

Dunno...I don't believe that is on mine.  Don't weld it up on my hunch though :lol:  My car isn't here at the moment so I can't tell you for sure :dunno:

Ragtopchally, those are for the retainers for the firewall insulation used on the inside of the car.

You measured my orange car when I gave you the a/c box right? I though I told you the third hole is for the vacuum line.
