Question regarding body mounts for a '64 Riv

I could use some advice regarding body mounts.

Today I broke a bolt on my front body mount while removing the inner fender well. Is the body mount in the photo below still usable or should I replace it? Also, what grade of bolt and nut should I purchase?

I know these are simple questions but I'm not a car guy by trade, I just pretend to be one on the weekends.

G'day from Oz my friend.I have done the exact same thing. If you want to reuse bushes that's no problem just punch out the bolt towards the ground and replace it with a Grade 8 bolt of the same size. As long as your inner fender is still solid and there's no patch work required on the mounting area just replace the bolt an off you go.. Gotta admit they held on pretty well for 50 years... :) Let us know how you go mate..
