1929 / 30 fender bolts


Recommended Posts

Would someone please take a picture of the bolts that attach the front fenders to the frame, in the area of the hood latches, on a 1930 Chrysler. Mine is a 30 CJ-6.

I can tell from pictures on the net that they are slotted machine screws smaller than 1/4 in., but I need to know about the washer. Flat or finish washer. 

There are 8 bolts, 4 on each side. Just need a picture of the correct or factory bolts.

 

Thanks

THANK YOU SOOO MUCH.!!!

Thats what I thought they were. Thats it. Just could not get a clear definite picture.

You    ARE    the     Man, John.!!!

Will I go to jail if I use stainless steel.??

 

Now I have to dig around and find the originals and the square nuts. 

They were bagged and tagged 30 years ago.

 

Thanks again.

Well... I guess they did things different for the 30 CJ. Although the pictures are correct for 29, 30, 31.

But... look what I found, marked / tagged and bagged, (front fender bolts).

 

5/16 threads X 3/4 long,....11/16 head, carriage bolt. With a hex nut. The square fits in a slot in the fender. I guess during assembly the carriage bolt did away with the screw driver. It saved or eliminated a task. Nice.

 

Thanks, John.
