Simple question, where might the tools originally been kept in a 2dr coach model. I see that chip answered the question for a 30 model as ...In a compartment under the front seat on most models....But I have no compartment as I do definately have original boards as the fisher body info is stamped there still.

Lift the front seat cushion and there is a shallow metal pan. That is where he is talking about that the tools were stored.

I see, how was the metal pan attched to the floor, I was assuming that it was like my Dodge in that you fold up either of the front seats and then there were two wide wooden inserts that ran the width of the car and under them was a toolbox or steel storage container that is very wide and very deep.

I thought as that maybe you were speaking definitavely so I went out and tried lifting up the front seat cushion thinking that maybe you had meant that the box was located within the seat frame and under the cushion but no luck, this metal pan must have been very narrow to fit under the folding seat and there are quite a few tools being held in it, any dimensions or pictures?
