Olddaddy Posted August 24, 2008 Report Posted August 24, 2008 I'm getting close to re-assembling my 50 Suburban. The paintwork is getting done over the next few weekends. I want to use as many stainless fasteners as I can putting it back together. It's not stock or a restoration, so originality is not an issue for me. I am hopeful that someone has those nice fine thread bolts and screws for all those places where they mount into exiting threaded holes. Who has a good selection? Quote
Plymouthy Adams Posted August 24, 2008 Report Posted August 24, 2008 hard to beat restoration specialties..they are online with their catalog...fast service also..good selection of stainless that is not generic but actual automotive special head design etc Quote
martybose Posted August 24, 2008 Report Posted August 24, 2008 I buy all of my stainless hardware from Totally Stainless; they are online at www.totallystainless.com. They even have the reduced head fasteners used for our interior trim (look for Jackson undersized head trim screws). Marty Quote
Norm's Coupe Posted August 24, 2008 Report Posted August 24, 2008 I like Totally Stainless too. When I was looking for new manifold studs with the same threads as the original ones, no one had any in town, not even steel ones. Called Totally Stainless and had them in a couple of days and they were the exact size with the two different threads on each end as the originals. Quote
Plymouthy Adams Posted August 24, 2008 Report Posted August 24, 2008 Thanks for the link to Totally Stainless...have earmarked it for future reference...I try to make a list of things I will need for when I am able to make a swap meet..usually vendors are out and about selling stainless..some are good deals..others are a rip-off..having a source for comparison is always great...

Allan Faust Posted August 24, 2008 Report Posted August 24, 2008 Well, I just ordered their catalog... I have a ARP bolt catalog, but I can't find nothing in there..... except bolts for racing engines.... even Don's isn't in there.... Allan Quote
Olddaddy Posted August 25, 2008 Author Report Posted August 25, 2008 Thanks for the tip on Totally Stainless. Between them and Restoration Specialties I should find what I need. Quote
