Front end bolt kit 48-50

Does any one produce a complete nut and bolt kit for front sheet metal assembly? It would sure save me some leg work. Cheers.

Not that I'm aware of. Most are 5/16" in size, I believe.

5/16 x 3/4 long looks like it will do for most everything . Iam currently taking my front end appart and I plan to use unlike stainless steel fasteners to assemble the body work .

Unlike stainless fasteners?? I want to use stainless bolts if I can find them in the right size at a reasonable price.

Some guys have used these kits with good success, BUT these are aimed more at what is needed for a complete re-assembly on a complete restoration. You might give them a call and see if they have smaller more focused (and cheaper) kits for front sheet metal, etc.
