The engine access window

[Taylor]

If you need some I have a few. Ill need to check the condition,  haven't looked in that box for a while.

Thanks Taylor, I'll just get a pair from WW. I'm pretty sure I can make the existing holes a bit bigger and they'll work perfectly. Brilliant idea

I was also thinking you could use the small round metal access covers for the shift rod hole found in the spare tire area.

That was my plan for the access panels, actually using steering box inspection covers since they are larger. And unfortunately the buldge in the shift rod cover isn't nearly deep enough to clear the pump rod. It's ridiculously long. I might be able to use an early rod that uses a split pin against the pump lever instead of the long adjusting nut and jam nut... That could save me up to 3/4"... Then the shift rod covers might do the trick. Something to think about. For now I'll just use the '67 latch rubbers. Easy to do with the motor still in the car. I'll upgrade when the motor comes out.
