Bolts, where did they come from?

[Richard G.]

Here is a picture of two bolts I had in my parts stash for my 1963. I suspect they came from the cowl area but truthfully I have no idea. They are 5/16 X 1-3/4 NC bolts that appear to have been cad or zinc plated. A couple of what appears to be wire retainers are wired to the bolts. Any ideas where they may have come from?


Thanks. Rick

I'll take a SWAG at it while I'm sitting here eating my breakfast. How about the two bolts that go through the lower core support to the lower L brackets?

Tony
I think you are right, and those wire clips are what hold the horn green wire to the bottom edge of core support.

Rick,

I concur with Tony and Don. My original '65 and '66 lower core support to "L" bracket bolts were an exact match to those in your photos. Cad with slightly mashed WB grade 5 headmarks.
