On a '69, what sort of hardware (bolt & nut, self tapper, rivet, etc.) was originally used to attach the front spoiler to the lower valance panel? Was it different for dealer-installed kits vs. factory installed?

JohnZ Jul 27th, 01, 05:37 PM Spoiler-to-valance attachments on factory-installed units were loose nuts and bolts, as were all the brace rod attachments. Don't know what was in the dealer kit, and the "hardware kits" sold by the repro parts houses are all wrong - they have four big 5/16"-18 "U"-nuts instead of loose nuts. Shown clearly in Section D-80 in the A.I.M. ------------------ JohnZ '69 Z28 Fathom Green MAXIMUM69 Jul 27th, 01, 05:59 PM Thanks for the info. I was at a show a couple of weeks ago and saw what was supposed to be a nut and bolt restored 69 Z and the front spoiler was pop-riveted on whereas mine is bolted on. Just wasn't quited sure which way was right - thanks. ------------------ 69 Z/28 X77, Fathom Green, 34,000 Original Miles - Photos (http://albums.photopoint.com/j/AlbumIndex?u=1432791&a=10737751) 69 SS 350, Lemans Blue, 350/300, TH350, 5 X 34,000 original miles :) (bought it when I was 15) chuckdetroit Jul 28th, 01, 08:59 PM You can buy the Front Hardware everything in one kit from National Parts Depot, here is the 1800 Number: California 1800.235.3445 Michigan 1800.521.6104 Florida 1800.874.7595 North Carolina 1800.368.6451 You can buy the master body kit for about 199.00 which covers every single bolt, nut washer, Shim, Spacer, lock washers, clamps, Bushings, rubber mounts.
