OK. This trivia may need some hints:
- There are two of them
- Located in interior of the car
- Helps secure something.

I believe it’s the stud that hold the dash pad to the dash

BINGO! These are the small ball studs that screw into the two vertical legs of the dash pad (upper instrument panel cover), and push into metal clips on the dash to help hold it in place.  Of course pulled used after 60 years they are usually more of a rusty color. Here is one of a few I threw into the cadmium plating batch.

Edelbrock Carb Block off Plates

Posted by Chase on March 12, 2025 at 2:05pm 13 Comments

I have to keep my foot on the throttle until it warms up or it will idle just terrible and try to die. Once it’s warm, it runs fantastic! Whats going on here? I was thinking of removing the…
