Years ago when my father was "helping out" he drilled the holes for the fender badge on one side a little too big so the standard barrel nuts were loose. Now they have become looser over time so I pulled the badge off and need to replace them. Anyone know of oversized barrel nuts somewhere?

 

Jay,
If it exists these guys will probably have it have it. Contact them and see what they say. Not sure if they have a minimum order for shipping, but if they have it and you want me to pick them up and ship them to you let me know. Then you can just send me the money for the parts and shipping. Just e-mail me and I can run by there Fri or Sat if needed.

WOW! Impressive inventory. I'll have to dig through there and see. Thanks for the info and offer.

 

Cool huh? I've been using them since 1987 when I built my first car. They are a family operation and know their stuff. Great people. And no prop on the offer as I know how hard it is to get some of these things and I am spoiled having Hillco so close.

 

Picked up 1/8" tube nuts right off the rack at Pep Boys. Worked awesome. They went in a little tight but hold the emblem well. So there's a source if anyone needs them.
