Ditto for Speed Nuts.....
You should be able to pick up at auto parts stores like Autozone, although they didnt have them like they were suppose to when I went looking for them. Luckly for me when I bought some RR parts off a local guy I bought a leftover box of nuts and bolts from his 69 Hemi Restoration, cant tell how many times I have found the nut/bolt/other that I was looking for in that box....

Yeah forgot about the dash. You are correct sir. I think they are also the same size. Going to strap on the snow shoes and venture out and try to find a couple handfuls of them. Thanksmoparstuart said:
