[DeTomaso] kick panel clearance

[Himes, Terry (397C)]

Mike,

Great.  I'm going to do that this weekend to my '74 #7104.  Not 'nuf clearance for boots.

Thanks Mike!

All,

Here's a photo of my car, which has an L-model interior and thus the hard
molded plastic L-model kick panels.   These are MUCH better than the flimsy
pre-L panels in terms of affording clearance, but there is still much to be
gained by moving them inboard through the use of a simple screw, as seen in
the attached photo.

The Pre-L cars benefit even more from this simple modification....
