I see -- I went down to where I know there is a 69-70 Mav and pulled that one. Of course it is missing one of the shielded nuts--just my luck. But I think the thing will hold for now with 3 and maybe a screw washer nut fit. Whose gonna know but me right! lol Strange piece btw. The later version makes more sense to me. Way to go Ford. lol Thanks for the info everyone. And I hope this helps others later.
They are Pan Head Phillips screws. #8 I believe, could be #10. grab a couple of both from Ace hardware since they are so cheap and save the trip if we guess wrong.
Hey thanks everyone. Thanks Craig but I found mine. They were in the baggie I put them in with the note IDing them! Duh They just were tossed with another group of marked bags. Again many thanks all.
