Misc. parts to identify

Post by wmcvey »

Finally getting the car put together and have come across a couple of miscellaneous pieces. Not sure where they belong.
I've had several people helping me over the years and was probably not the one that disassembled some of these parts.
Anyone has suggestion these?
I thought for a minute it had something to do with the headlights, because of the shape of the outline. But no.

those are the rear engine/transmission mounts, never seen the wooden parts before and not related to the motor mounts. Under the headlights was a rubber gasket, not wood.

I knew about the transmission mounts. I was just surprised that the outline matched, and even the hole separation was the same.
I'm lost as to where these pieces of wood came from. They were part of my parts pile.

But I have my engine rebuilt and running. The car is basically drivable, just need to finish putting on some body parts, and all the chrome hardware.

Some other parts to identify, may possibly be radiator related ?? It's some type of rubber.
Someone told me they go under the radiator, where it bolts to the chassis.
Currently the shop that installed my radiator did put rubber washers. But they're only about 1/8 inch thick, and not half inch like pictured here.
If that is their location, is this a issue I should fix?

I have seen a variety of different sizes under radiator, but I could not say what was original and what was done years later.
