Great photos, thank you for posting! What is the square bracket with the tabs left and right adjacent to the opening for the steering column?
Thank you!
Great question...and thanks for reading our Blog!
That bracket is used only on a 64 1/2 and earlier production 65. It is used to hold the piece of jute where the clutch rod goes through the firewall. Sometime around Feb. of '65 or so, this type of set up was changed and the rubber boot that fits into the round hole was used.
Here is the link to the boot:
