I am working on a 1950 Chevy 3100. I have what appears to be a mystery hole next to my glovebox lock. Am I missing another piece of trim? Any insights would be greatly appreciated!

I think someone may have modified your truck in the past. My 1950 with no mods is notcurrently at my house so I can't take any pictures for you. Same with the radio. I don't think those other holes are stock.

In the case of the radio, they don't appear to be exactly symmetrically placed as you would expect from a factory design.

I had feared that. I may just fill those rogue holes and maintain standard. Thank you!

My truck had a similar hole that the previous owner arttached a butterfly style latch to keep the glove box closed. The button latch was not working.

Aren't you talking about just the one hole to the right of the glove box key latch? I don't see any other mysterious hole which should be questioned. I see Otto question about the holes by the radio but I do not see a pic of the radio. Did your originally post a picture of it?

Craig, he posted the photo in another thread with related questions about various extra holes.
