Wanted - 70 Challenger Metal Floor Pan Plugs

[HEMICUDA]

Number one looks like the shock access plug from the trunk floor.  The one I'm after is about 1.5-1.75" diameter.  The metal part on the small one is slightly concave as well.  The shock access plug is flat.

You can buy that other metal floor plug (#2) from DMT.  I just got a set:

The dia. of the round metal plate is 1.3".

@Jay Bee  If you're ever out this way, I have tons of used ones you can have, or remind me before Spring Fling if you're going.

Thanks for the offer Alan but I'll probably just buy a body plug kit. For the life of me I don't know why my car had those galvanized plugs in the footwells.

They all did...most car have 4 of them, but I've found convertibles with 6 of the metal ones..

I was able to acquire the assembly drawing for the plug.  The date on the drawing is 8-24-1943 and originally designed for the aeronautics industry as a "patch plug" which means, if you find them, well cost dearly.  Also, it appears the brick red rubber was added sometime later, probably for the automotive industry since the original design didn't use it.  For the company reproducing the larger shock access plug, these would be a piece of cake to reproduce.

According to Jim Filmore, these are the guys who make the shock access plug:
