Default Front valance hardware.

Hi!
Just got started aligning the front end, having the endura bumper is going to give me a headache for sure... Anyway.

When i disassembled the valance panel along with the parking lamps i had roughly 5 types of bolts altogether... Some fine, some coarse...

I've searched the restoration guide and both shop manuals for correct ones without any luck.

I was hoping someone in here could shed some light on what bolts might be correct.

/Adam

All of those bolts attached to clip nuts and that's what's going to determine whether it's a fine or coarse thread. Sounds like you might have a mixed bag...With that said, I can't tell you what the original configuration was but I can't imagine that they had a mixture of coarse and fine threads from the factory.

If you go to AMK and type in “G-7401” they will break down all the fasteners needed and include pics of each piece. G-7391 is the parking lamp hardware.

99% of what I’ve received from them in their Master Kits has been spot on. The valance hardware listed above fit perfectly for me, although I never had original hardware there when I got the car to compare it to.

Thanks for your replies!
I saw Ames carry correct ones aswell. Usually takes 3-4 weeks to receive a parcel but if thats the only way i guess i'll take it.

I am doing a complete front-end removal for painting and re-assembly. I just bought the Master Body kit from AMES. It has every correct bolt and screw and the speed nuts and washers. The package comes with a description of each piece and location. Each different set of fasteners comes bagged separately with each bag marked by description.
The kit is excellent. It is a little pricey, but I believe that it is worth it.
