Just curious, are you working on a clone that doesn't have the holes or a real one where the trunk pan was changed?

Here is a drawing done by Buddy Belzer many years ago showing all holes from 5S235.

Please note that the drawing shows 5S235 had the staggered battery hold down bracket holes
which means the car was equipped with the 65 Ford and 67-69 Mustang bracket.
