If you have trouble finding the correct bolts, try Fastenal.

I bought a running board bolt kit for my '54 3100 from The Filling Station. Also available from other suppliers.

Filling Station #GM-1152
The Truck Shop #47-06605

I haven't used them yet, so I don't know if they are correct. I'll find out next week when I remove my running boards to strip and paint. Doesn't look like the bolts on my running boards are elevator bolts.

Suggest you also buy running board to cab seals, running board to cab seals mtl retainer, and running board to fender gaskets. Available from most suppliers.
