Skip,
Since my TD had been Volvoized when I got it, I had to look at quite
a few cars to see how things were supposed to be. I never saw a TD that
did not have wood screws at the outboard edges of the floorboards. These
are obviously in addition to the machine screws at the inboard, front
and rear edges. Are you saying that the outboard edges of the
floorboards were left to float?
