    1963 Body to chassis bolts (Located in front of the rear tires)

    Pictured is the body to chassis bolts I pulled from my car. They are located in front of the rear tires.
    I really don't have any questions unless someone can confirm the plating type.
    A replacement set was purchased and installed but I plan on replacing them with the originals as time permits.
    I am more interested in documenting the type and size for others, as 1963's are so unique.

    I am in the process of sending the bolts out for re-plating and thought I would share what I found here.

    They are 7/16" NC bolts X 1-3/4" with a pointed end.
    They also have a lock washer and a special 1-1/4" outside diameter flat washer.
    I believe all three parts were zinc plated.

    Rick I agree these bolts were zinc plated. 63 has few different size bolts as I recall the ones in the Radiator support were slightly smaller.
