Hi,
1969 Series II, am putting it back together, and found a plywood board that I cannot determine its use / place. It is about 12" square with a top that has something akin to a rectified sine wave on the top (two humps with an upward smile between). Any thoughts?

Passenger toe-board to fit in footwell. Allows those with shorter legs to brace themselves better because of your driving!

Thanks a lot, you were right on, and my shorter wife will appreciate the foot rest, however my son will have to remove it! Next is a painted on one side kind of a trapezoid piece of metal with some washers that look like the bonnet washers that sports 2 cutouts on the edge (smallest side) that look like they might be reliefs for hoses.. (I have AC from the factory). Thoughts on that? And a piece of vinyl that is T shaped. the top cross is longer than the shorter fatter vertical piece. the 'right' side has a curvy cut. thanks for your thoughts!!!

The link below is to my 3 pieces of unknown origin... insulation, vinyl, sheetmetal, from under the bonnet I suspect. http://s1078.photobucket.com/albums/w481/robsimons69/ Thanks for looking. and your help.
