Fill the holes and start over. The items you are installing dictate the hole positions.

Drywall anchors will work fine for items like sill plates if you don't want to go to all the trouble.

I used the Permatex thread repair I got from an auto parts store to repair two stripped-out threads for the sill plates in my 69. It was pretty quick and easy.
