Does anyone have a picture of what the open station 7000 series used for the black mat on the floor? Was it glued on or riveted? Did it have a pattern to it? Did it have holes cut for the bolts? I'm wrapping up my 7030 open station restoration and want it as close to correct as I can. Thanks

Like 210 said it has a small c channel metal, with screws that go thru that into the platform. Cut on 45 degree angles on the front. If l ever get over to get that sign, l could bring you one and see if you could get it made.

Okay thanks. I'm sure I could make them, but not having any idea what I'm making is the problem lol. I've had 3 open stations but none of them still had it.

look for quarter inch bolt holes in floor pans that will show you the hold down placement
