For the stamped box nuts; when re-building my heater core box,  I found them at one of the big parts house.  I think they we sold in bags of 4 or 5.  They had 2 sizes and I bought a bag of each.

At ZIP; I just found one set; search for product number : ZM-2574

I may have a lead on your missing parts. 
 
It may take me until Saturday to confirm it.  I'm sure he has the nut but if he does not have the other items it would not be worth the shipping accross the USA to get the nuts.

Ben, do you have a Paint & Body Shop supply company in your area(We have "English Color" in this area)? They would have a nice selection of those "Pal" nuts(that's what they're called). Have you tried Pep-Gurls? They sometimes have stuff like that in the "Help" section.
Heck, I prolly got some in my tool box, too, of different sizes. I'll look when I gits home, iffin no-one else has them.

And...this place has plenty of them, very cheap... 1/4", 50 to a package, for $3.75....

The guy I use to get all misc parts from locally said he has all three.  I will let you call him or email him  Steve Allen 619 210 4444  vettsteve@aol.com.
He has a lot of hard to find used parts as he has been in the business over 20 years.  Is a lifetime member but does not get on a lot any more.

I reached the point where I need them done because they are getting buried under wiring and other parts...   i was just going to order from zip but it hurts my sould to pay 7.95 shipping on a $3 stamp nut kit that weighs 1/4 ounce.
 
anyone have any of these?
