I have a 57 100-6 and can't find what part I need to fill in this hole. Victoria British said they don't have the part and can't find it in the Moss catalog.
Can someone tell me what to use.
The mirrors are on the fenders. Did a previous owner relocate the mirrors leaving the holes open?

Thanks Keith for the link, I must of looked through both catalogs 5 times and overlooked it.
I hate asking simple questions on here but after a hour or more searching I give up.
For instance, I'm about to give up on what's the proper way to secure the rear seats, I know the current bungee cords around the rear axle can't be the norm.
 
No, the original was a leather strap secured by footman's (footmen's? footmans'?) loops. Just joking...

Each seat pan is held by 4 sheet metal screws, one at each front corner and 2 at the back sort-of corners. The chrome (or stainless) screws have an oval head and use a chrome or stainless cup washer.

I wouldn't worry about asking simple questions; people on this forum are pretty happy to help. Sometimes the information is even correct! :smile-new:
 
Thanks again guys, after working on the fuel pumps I never bungeed the seats back down. I know the wife will be happy not having to hold down the seats above 40mph after I screw them down.

The past few weeks I really have gotten the bug to get this car back in shape. Before it was always a PITA to get started having to use starting fluid and I'd just drive it around the block and park it for a few months until next time.
Now after getting it more reliable to drive I've been driving alot using it to run errands and I'm amazed the reaction I get from people giving me thumbs up and yelling "cool car!" as I drive by. It really is a fun and cool car!
 
For some reason, I always got the best reactions from 'tween girls and motorcyclists. Both scare me...
