side curtain rod sockets for buick/lasalle/cadillac phaetons

2004-02-19T03:59:48.000Z

Does anyone sell or produce side curtain rod sockets that were used on early 30's buick phaetons? I have a '32 Buick sport phaeton and need one more rod socket. I have a friend with a '31 LaSalle that needs several more. Please help!

What material are they made of? What is the dimension? What is the desired finish? John Worden, Green Mountain Iowa 641-474-2313

I bought them (Dawson Plugs) from Henry Yeska, Sr., 825 Georgetown Road, Nazareth, PA 18064, 610-759-0230 - and they were 100 point ready to install.

P.S. Learned the hard way, run a pair of dial calipers down the hole prior to installation and make sure you have the right depth prior to installing. If depth is wrong, very carefully clean/drill out hole (which is not easy) as they holes are sort of oval.
