Re: 49 fender bolts
I believe those are supposed to be rivets. I'd guess you could use about a #10 carriage bolt and have the heads be close to the correct size.

Re: 49 fender bolts
I'm not sure on minimum quantity but check this site out http://www.blacksmithbolt.com/store/...ed-Screws.aspx
I got to it by searching for rivet head machine screws.

I have found that If you have a good Ace hardware store anywhere close that you can find most any fastener that you need, and most will look close to original. If you are doing an exact original restoration you will probably be forced to obtain some of them from a vendor.

A good fastener supply house should be able to come up with some too. Problem there is some of them will only sell by the box.
