I have a 1960 Bugeye. Can someone tell me what these are and where they go? When I removed parts from my car, I was careful to put them in baggies, label them, and included a small sketch. Unfortunately, mice got into the box and shredded the paper. All I could see on the bag was the word "steering". Any help would greatly be appreciated.

Shims. The look like steering column mount shims, but I'm not sure.

That was only on the cars made after Feb 1966.

not true - in 1967 they went back in time and inserted them on the assembly line for the previous years.
 
They are the straps that link the giggling-pin to the updraft pandoriums.
Believe me or not.
