[DeTomaso] BAT Pantera question

[Matt]

Thank you Mike and you're right Richard. Here's another angle that shows
the brake fluid tanks obstructing a clear path.
The seller confirmed that they are rivets with large washers. Look like
plugs but for what? Maybe an upside down mounting plate for stereo?
It could have been anything but I'd like to confirm it wasn't a factory
setup on earlier cars which seems unlikely unless someone knows for sure.
Thanks,
Matt

   Thank you Mike and you're right Richard. Here's another angle that
   shows the brake fluid tanks obstructing a clear path.
   The seller confirmed that they are rivets with large washers. Look like
   plugs but for what? Maybe an upside down mounting plate for stereo?
   It could have been anything but I'd like to confirm it wasn't a factory
   setup on earlier cars which seems unlikely unless someone knows for
   sure.
   Thanks,
