Mysterious Holes in firewall

[DjD]

Get ahold of copy of the '68 Factory Assembly Instruction Manual, AIM for short and you'll find firewall drawings with all the holes shown...

How big are they, look to be about 1/2" diameter? Nothing stock goes thru that location, that big. Some stuff (2 holes) come thru in that dimpled area just under the wiper motor, but their supposed to be .185" in diameter

They are about 1/2" in diameter. When I got the car, they were covered by old duct tape. Didn't even occur to me that there might be holes under there! Now not sure what to do about them, patch them or leave them? I think my big block will disguise them pretty well after putting some sort of patch over them.

On the AIM for '69 it shows a .920/.940 dia hole to the left of the upper part of the steering colume cutout for RPO M20 transmission. The speedo cable is routed through the firewall there. I know this is not a '69 but if you had the right AIM to reference you wouldn't have to guess...

I have seen hoses about that size for aftermarket A/C units...something to consider.
