I made a false floor panel for the toe panel on the passenger side of car and mounted all the stuff on that panel so when it folds out it is laying flat on the floor out where you can actually get to it. I put carpet on it just like the floor.

This sounds like a great idea but I am having trouble visualizing it.  Would it be possible for you to shoot a couple of photos that show where it is with respect to some other obvious thing in the car and how it folds out?  TIA!

I built a metal box to replace the cardboard one in the glove box. I bought two  six circuit aaw fuse panels and I'm going to mount them in the glove box. One for constant voltage and one for key on. My original fuse panel disintegrated and it was a royal pita to get to. I'm also relocating the flasher switch into the glove box. No pics because the panels haven't arrived from the Great Wall yet.

My original fuse block is STILL in the original location.  Hanging by the 'warz' to make it A LITTLE EZ'er to fool with. BUTT....... I made an aux fuse panel for stuff I've added over the years(with a lonnng war) that just sits on top of my heater plenum/box. Makes it soooo much EZ'er to deal with when I can just 'pull-it-out-and-play-with-it' when I need to (while sitting in the passenger seat!)

Mine 65 is stock and in stock location. I too will find a better place when I rewire the car. When I did my 67 C10 stepside I installed a "Ron Francis" behind the driver seat. First pic is fuse box, relays and other stuff the little square box is a controler I made because my tail lights ar single filament third brake lights out of a 86 camarro . Had to be abe to control tail and turns with 2 wire in, one wire out pr side. I have only been in here in 20 years for a couple fues and to access the alarm box to the right that you cant see. side set. Has worked very well.

Tak a look at 90’s ford trucks, rangers,Taurus, and even Toyota’s.
they have rectangular fuse panels that are compact.
It might be easy to use as a replacement.
Some even have relay sockets built into housing too.
They have a clean look to them and have covers too.
I’ve seen them in interior as well as in engine compartment.

I mounted a bracket on the brake booster studs coming through the firewall and mounted my AAW fuse panel to the bracket.
