There are small plates on the pedals on which rubber pads ('draft
excluders') go, but these don't come near to sealing the 2 round holes (they
don't come
all the way up to the floorboard, either). It sure seems like there should
be some sort of panel to help seal up the area around the pedals--

Hey this is a Healey 100 we're talking about! What's the sense of sealing
up one hole only to have hot air leaking in another? I am not 100% certain
but believe the "draft excluders" are all there was originally. They should
come pretty close to the back side of the toe box when the pedals are up but I
doubt they ever gave a perfect seal. Which reminds me of a joke:
Question: How are a walrus and tupperware similar?
Answer: They both like a tight seal.
