Took some 10-32 Stainless screws and turned them to length. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Dobbin Posted December 31, 2022 Share Posted December 31, 2022 Glad you made your own. My upholstery guy had them in stainless steel for our 34 Ford Phaeton. 40 years ago he also had the doubles in brass for the 15 Model T. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul Dobbin Posted January 2, 2023 Share Posted January 2, 2023 Oldford. You are correct, they were not lift a dots, they were twist the tung fasteners. Sorry, that was 40 years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
