50's chev

I can't find a supplier that keeps the counter sunk screws and nuts for the door glass frames on old model chev's. Any body know a source?

Re: 50's chev

The screws you are looking for are 8-32 flat head phillips. Try a local hardware store. Some of the tru-value stores have a great selection. Or search the web for flat head phillips screws. Lots of info there.

Re: Re: 50's chev

The problem I have had is that the screws go into a female threaded end that is also countersunk. I have checked every supplier and all seem to have discontinued them. Thanks for the help.

Re: 50's chev

CRL had them when I ordered about 6years ago. They were obsolete. I still need some . Try rivits.

Re: 50's chev

Are you looking for nuts and screws for 55 up chevy truck door glasses??

Re: 50's chev

if i remember right theese bolts are kind of like sex bolts

Re: Re: 50's chev

Right, I need the nuts and bolts and both have to be countersunk to clear the channel. CRL shows them in the old big red but they are discontinued.

Re: 50's chev

almost impossible to find but an older installer says he has used rivets instead

Re: Re: 50's chev
