Drain plugs on floors

**YENKO DEUCE REGISTRY** · #1 04-18-2008, 07:57 PM

Does anyone know if there are two different thicknesses of drain plugs for the floors? I think the ones used in the trunk were a different thickness vs. the ones used inside the car.

Is this for the 69?

What is a good source for correct drain plugs? Should they be galvanized?

Thanks

All six are the same and shoud be galvanized, at least on Camaro.

Camaro or Nova no difference in thickness. The repo ones they sell today are thicker. They are a galvinized finish. Some have dates, some do not. I just re-installed the original ones from my Nova yesterday, All pulled from the original green, {yes green} seam sealer. None had dates on an April 69' car. We just prepped Frans 69' Nova today, a January 69' car, all had dates and the same green seam sealer. I have also seen non dated and dated plugs on the same car. They are typically installed with this high side up, but I have seen cars with one or two installed upside down...BKH

Good stuff Brian. What finish is on the original ones from the Nova you discussed above? Did you refinish them?

Any photos?

Thanks!
