Front Trunk, What goes in this hole? Options

[bbrock]

I'm trying to figure out what is supposed to plug the hole the arrow is pointing to. I'm pretty sure I have the right bits in the other holes and they are as follows:

1 -

2 -

3 -


My bet would be that a second drain tube (3) goes in that rear hole but 914rubber only includes one in their full restoration kit. I have a mystery third bumper (1) with an offset post that I thought I harvested from a donor trunk, but maybe it goes in that hole to keep the spare tire elevated slightly off the trunk floor. Anyone know the correct widget for that spot? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)

Yeah Brent - 2 drain tubes fore & aft at the tire well - where you have #3 & arrowhead in the trunk pic.

Contact Mark or someone at 914Rubber & ask them to send you the missing 2 one, & if they say they only include one, then tell them that a "complete kit" should have both & to update their kits as well.

If you look at the Sahara Beige `73 2L in the "The few the rare..." nailed topic in the O&H Forum (& Dave's red `76 & the others), then you can see where they all go. They're in there for reference on where stuff like plates/labels/stickers, bits-n-pieces go.


See post #29 - not great due to AC/Spare & angle, but you can see the #2 plugs & part of the #1 bumper in the lower right halfway peaking out -

Also Jeff Bowlsby's web site has a ton of reference pix for locations of stuff like this & plates, labels, markings - etc.

My early 73 2L's front trunk floor doesn't have a hole at your #2 arrow in your pic, but from Steve's Sahara Beige it looks like a #2.

PS - there is a really good front trunk pic on here showing all the plugs & drain tubes in place, but I've lost my bookmark of it. So if anyone else comes across it, please link it in here for Brent & future O&H reference use.

PSS - Pretty much everything except the 2x #3 & 2x #1 - will be #2 plugs AFAIK & IIRC.

Cheers! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)
