I don't know of anyone that can furnish the '64 GTO/LeMans deck lid attaching hardware. I've found pieces that will work for this. The Acorn nuts are stamped, yellow zinc plated, and are identical to the OEM nuts. The Phillips head screws for the ends of the trim strip are identical to the original large-headed 8-32 screws. The NAPA trim clips fit the trim strip very well, but the studs are too long and the 10-24 threads don't work smoothly with the Acorn nuts. It's not difficult to cut off the studs for proper length and, if you're careful, you can make them work with the #10 Acorn nuts.

For the ends, you need to cut off the studs and drill/tap the trim clip 8-32 for the screws.

I've done the above on my two '64's and the trim strip is firmly attached and looks exactly like factory. If you need all or some of these parts, PM me. I will supply the six Acorn nuts, two 8-32 Phillips head screws, and the eight trim clips as a complete set OR will modify the trim clips (shorten the studs on six clips and drill/tap two of them for 8-32 threads. As pictured, $20, or modified $35.

Hello Dick,

I stumbled across this thread while looking for 64 GTO deck lid clips. Do you still have any of these?
Thank you.

Which parts do you need? I have the trim clips that are inserted into the stainless strip. with 10-24 studs. I have acorn nuts fabricated from sheet metal like the originals with 7/16" across the flats. . And I have the two Phillips head screws for the ends of the trim strip.
