'Nother little quiz, anyone?

Post by Roger King »

Where do you find this on an original 289? Most likely a later leafspring rack-and-pinion car.

Well, it's a "Hillman" hole plug, but God knows where it would go, but I'd guess at the interior trim somewhere??

If it's what I'm thinking, then about 1" - 1 1/4" dia???

Nope - those have the correct rubber plugs in them. As do the much larger ones in the wheelarches to access the tank straps.

Keep going chaps - not really even warm yet
