Got a bundle of the bolts from Michael today and they are sitting on my desk as we speak. Absolutely gorgeous. I grabbed a couple of new BSF nuts from the back room and the threads are also perfect. They will suffer a touch from the shipping and banging against each other in transit, so expect some slight burring, but once the nut runs on once, all is good.
The longer 5/16 ones will be nice, especially for the control panel. With the thick rubber gasket that goes between the hull and the control panel, it seems I could never find these bolts long enough to do the job.
Thanks Michael for having these made up. It is a real service to carrier owners and restorers.
