Hi Jason

Linkage is for the E brake....

The panel is a puzzler...... because of the corrosion.... it could be from the battery area or the inner nose section subject to a lot of road salt......

Is the plate thick enough to be a floor plate...?

Bob its pretty heavy stuff about 14 gauge, But i have yet to come accross anything that would be a battery box or parts of. The panel does have 4 slotted head tappered screws or whats left of em....to me looks like it may have been bolted to the frame and something olted to it....I have no clue but there is a few spots of paint left.

I may have found the location of the panel, Please correct me if i am wrong but if so some one please post a better picture of one thats not rotted.
I am thinking thats its the bottom part of the battery box...not 100%sure.

The four large screws and the corrosion are the give aways, but the battery box actually sat on top of the plate.
