65 limit cable eyelet washer trivia

was mildly surprised to see that the eyelet washer is apparently a hood pin blank, dimpled for drillout.
(they had never been touched previously)
more notable is that it is nowhere near as 'nice' of original material/manufacture as the 'concours' items marketed today despite its obvious age and usage:

Ones I've seen are thicker than hood pins and have 2 divots in them.  I've seen the same washers used in the Ford service replacement rear seat belt kits.
