'66 original rear valance lower bolts

[Rob A.]

I'm looking for either a picture or a description of the original bolt & nut that attach the lower part of the rear valance on each end. I've seen several different types advertised as correct. I believe the bolt is the washer head type as well as the nut. I've seen nuts with "RBW" that look correct. As expensive as these small," original" items are getting, I want to know I'm looking at originals.

Rob,
I believe these are the bolts you are looking for- Richard Fortier, a Driveline advertiser, has them.

Here are two as installed pictures on an unrestored car. It is a '65 but I doubt they would have changed.

Jim's picture shows the correct installation of them as well. Other headmarkings are RSC, EL, E. ARA. Obviously I agree that the pictures Joe was nice enough to post are IMO correct, original valance bolts. ARA

These bolts don't appear to have an indented head as do the ones in the post by James.
