Location: Under the X in Texas | I'm curious so will ask. I've always seen all these parts in #1 cad plating from the factory. I don't recall finding one painted (black). Anyone taken one out of a car where the factory had painted it?
I've purchased a few of these over the years from you. They are EXACTLY like the factory supplied pieces. |

Location: Eastern Iowa | Another club member plated and painted the in the 1st picture.
I have no idea what finish they had originally.
The only ones I ever found in a car that I had were rusted clumps of metal down in the bottom of the lower rear 1/4 panels!!
Anyone know if the 50's had them as well?
Same trunk floor I think so stands to reason.

Location: The Mile High City | Got mine! Thanks, Dave. I had no idea I needed this part until I saw this thread. I didn't verify, but if Ed has it in his '57 De Soto, could my '58 be any different? I don't think so. |

Location: Branson, MO | I don’t know if mine that I bought from finsrukw is accurate, but I only painted the hold down matte black and left the nut and hook unpainted. It looks good to me. |

Location: Eastern Iowa | I believe they may have been cad or zinc plated originally.
I have an original strap that appears to have been that way.
Most of these probably wound up lost down in the fender wells, got wet and ruined. |

Location: So. Cal | It is used to bolt the spare tire down to the floor. A long screw comes up from the loop in the floor and goes through the center of the spare & jack base. |
