Yep theres hidden bolts.
Under back seat. If the rear suspension is still on the car then there will be some in the floor of the cargo area. My memory wont let loose
information about the bolts across the front of the pan. They could be inside as well.

Yep theres hidden bolts...
6 x 13mm headed bolts under back seat
2 x 17mm head under plastic covers under seat near belt attach points
2 x 17mm head under cardboard section that lifts up in parcel tray area.
4 x 17mm head on bottom of floorpan near front firewall
2 x 15mm headed up in front of the front suspension beam
and the 13mm headed bolts down each side of the floor pan.
How do i know i just put one back together last weekend.
Put a jack under the side of body to break the seal to the floor before lifting as they stick licjk shit to a blanket after 35 or so years.
