I dissassembled this long ago and am hoping to mockup my front end before I start body work. I waiting to purchase a bolt kit till I do final assembly.

Do you want original style/color?
Stainless-steel and zinc-steel kits are available but they might not have the original cap styles and colors.

Right now, I'm just trying to figure out the sizes so i can go to the local hardware store to pickup a few cheap bolts for mockup. | | | | | Joined: Jul 2010 Posts: 34 New Guy | | New Guy Joined: Jul 2010 Posts: 34 | I think i figured it out 3/8" bolts. coarse thread | | | | | Joined: Jan 2009 Posts: 1,644 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Jan 2009 Posts: 1,644 | 5/16 X18 Most are that size on mine a 52-3100 there are some 1/4 20 on the bottom splash apron and on the top were the hood latch is ,but most are 5/16s.
For just mocking up You could just buy a bunch of 5/16 X 1 inch and some 5/16 X 1 washers.
