Subject: [Tigers] Three Holes at rear of trunk

Hello,

There are three holes about an inch and a half in diameter or so, at the rear of the trunk. On a stock car, they have a steel plug with a miniature handle to pull the plug out. Over the years all of mine have rusted, To the point that you can pull the plug out but there’s no hope and reusing it. Rick sells replacement rubber plugs but I was hoping to find a source for an original appearing steel one. Anybody know if there’s any available from any source?

Jim,

the original metal sprung plugs are not repro'ed to my knowledge.. but were
used in other rootes cars.. finding a hillman minx parts car or other
rootes car that used them is the best bet.
