Actually it's a bit more complicated than a cut up bolt, it's a little
thinner than the bolt hole but has a fat part towards the end

This tool came about when the use of mag wheels became common, ya'll
remember that the thin steel rims where pretty easy to fit.

Ok, so the photo link I posted showing the tool roll from my car does
not include the pin for mounting the wheel.
I assume it is nothing more than a bolt with the right size and
thread with its head cut off that one screws into the hub.
Anyone know off hand what size and thread pitch the hub/wheel bolts
are on a 115 300D?
I will buy myself a nice little bolt and cut the head off as it
sounds like it would be helpful in mounting the wheels on these cars
that do not have studs on the hubs.

You got it. you can just take a lug bolt to the hardware store. It is
about 3" long.
