Hints from Heloise
 
My fall / winter 123 body jack-hole plugs are made from Gulf Wax canning paraffin cut into roughly the shape of the hole and then tapped in with a rubber mallet.

do you get them out if you need to jack up the car?

They seem to work well.

Buy the ones for a 124 chassis. They are a buck or so and fit and look right.
