    What are those plugs for? Does anyone actually expect to flood their car and have to use a drain to let the water out?

    1972 Maverick 2 door.Original V-8 3 spd std shift.Also a 72 one owner Sprint sporting a 351 Windsor
    Jig locater holes.The holes properly locate the pan on a fixture so the rails can be welded on in the proper orientation during build/assembly.Afterward the holes are covered with a rubber plug or ametal plate and a couple sheet metal screws...mustang pans work... I put 65 mustang pans in my mav,trim the inboard edge off(tunnel side) untill it fits between the rocker and tunnel.The mustang had a wider pan than the mav.Also the pinch rail(lip at the rocker sideof the new pan)needs to bent upward if you want it to look correct, otherwise leave it alone and weld it to the rocker from under the car instead of inside the car.
