As some of you may know I have been working on my 41 when I broke a bolt, anyway I was cleaning up after myself and I found these 2 metal washers under the car. Can someone tell me what they are for?

Guys, I'll even take a guess as to what they are for. All I did was replace the Carb, which I had rebuilt, replaced all of the hoses and that was it.
Thanks

Almost forget I did replace the vacuum lines for the power shifter
If they were covered in grease or thick dirt there's a good chance they'd been sitting somewhere on the engine for years and got bumped or jarred out. Just a theory.
They look like the washers used to hold sheet metal to either the radiator support or to the cowl. They are not from the engine.
I was hoping that they are not from the engine. I did remove the front and two side splash shields from under the engine to clean up all the crud that was on top of them. Will keep them on a key ring in the car.
Thanks

they look like small fender washers, 1/4 or 5/16. may be they were on the splash shields at one time and not replaced because they were hidden in the crud and just stuck there
I have them on a key chain in the glove box, hopefully someday I will find out what they are for and where they came from. They must be some kind of specialized washers and since the car is running great I will assume all is OK. I do want to thank you all for the input.
Thanks
