Steve Hughes 12 Posted March 21, 2011 Share Posted March 21, 2011 I had this posted on the Hupmobile forum, but then realized that these might be used on other makes of cars as well. Decided to post it here as well to see if there are other folks interested in these.My Model 20 Hupmobile is missing a couple of the special screw headed nuts that are used for the windshield brackets and the dash to filler brackets. They are 12-24 thread and use a standard brass machine screw from one side and these special nuts on the other that when mounted look just like the 12-24 machine screw head.I have been in touch with a guy that can make these, but the setup cost is the issue. Are any of you interested in a set of these? If we could get 8 or 9 guys to get a set of 12 used per car, then they would be about $4.00 each or $48 per set of 12. Is there any interest?Thanks,Steve Link to post Share on other sites
MochetVelo 409 Posted March 22, 2011 Share Posted March 22, 2011 You might get more interest if you posted a photo. Perhaps other makes used a similar fastener.Phil Link to post Share on other sites
Steve Hughes 12 Posted March 22, 2011 Author Share Posted March 22, 2011 Phil,Thanks for the suggestion. I had posted photos in the Hupmobile forum, but forgot to come back here and post them as well. These are known as barrel nuts or sometimes sex screws. I have found some stock items, but nothing quite right. Here are the photos. Link to post Share on other sites
Steve Hughes 12 Posted March 26, 2011 Author Share Posted March 26, 2011 Bump.Does anyone know of any other makes that use this style of fasteners besides Hupmobile?Thanks,Steve Link to post Share on other sites
