What Kind of Floor Pan Fasteners Do You Have?

I have a '47 Desoto, and the front floor pans have rather large holes where hex screws with rather large washers hold the floor pans down.

It doesn't appear that these fasteners were original equipment. In my parts book I cannot find any suitable explanation or see in the drawings what these fasteners were like.

I sent Restoration Specialties a sample but no go. I think I have found them at another auto fastener supplier, but I was curious as to what you guys have to fasten the floor pans down.

That's exactly what mine has. Maybe they are factory original. So where do you get these? No, not Restoration Specialties!!

My D25 has those as well. I just used a bolt with the same thread and put a big washer with it. I had one where the caged nut was missing and I just used a regular nut on the bottom. Had to get some help to do it as I could not reach the bolt and nut at the same time.
