Unhappy Where to buy correct body nuts
I'm replacing the A and B pillars on my 1970 K20 and the replacement parts do not have the proper square nuts welded on. Where is the best place to find the correct nuts? Does anyone make and sell a kit of these nuts and bolts? Anybody know what the proper sizes are? Mine are completely rusted away so I don't have a reference.

Re: Where to buy correct body nuts
I got mine from Fastenal. Not sure on size. I think they were 3/8 or 7/16.

Re: Where to buy correct body nuts
Unless you're going for a full on restoration, then regular 6pt nuts and a washer work just fine.
