I found a link to this site which looks to be a great resource for autmotive fasteners. Ive not ordered from them but they seem to have a little of everything. Im going to bookmark this one.

Thanks Chip for sharing.

Thanks Chip.
One observation. What is so gall darn unique about the 69 Vette?
This is the second place that has thousands of makes and models for their products, just not a 69 Vette.
The other one I reference is seatbelts for a 69 Vette. No one makes seatbelts for the bright blue interior.
Sorry, it's already been a long winter and I feel like griping.
Hopefully the interior screw kit for a 70 would be pretty close to a 69, ya think?

Mr. G's is THE place to have any plastic chroming done. They do phenomenal work on trim stuff like interior moldings and such.
They started out doing Musturd stuff years ago...I guess they branched out.
Kewl!! and...they're in my area!

[/QUOTE] Steve, shipping is supposed to be 11% of your total...in your case that would be $00.22........but I'll bet they would let you buy without a minimum sized order.

Thanks 440, yea I know. You are right. Will check it out and see what I come up with. I have been looking for 2 ea. 5/16 fine thread chrome acorn nuts. Shopped at all my all my towns "walk ins", but no luck.
I did bookmark it.... looks like a real good place to find fasteners....
Well I looked them up...they didn't have either. Had course thread but not fine. Min. shipping/ handling is $8. Still, looks like a good place to shop.
