It's a 10-32 screw. I wasnt able to find one locally, but most of the vendors have them. Good Luck.

Re: Dash bolt size?
Are you referring to the instrument panel or dash panel. If is the dash panel I think they use 1/4" x 1/2" long oval head slotted screws. I am a 28/29 person, so I could be wrong for a 30/31 dash screws.

after searching all over I finally bought the complete interior nut / bolt set from Snyders, very reasonable.

Re: Dash bolt size?
All the original cars I've seen also used the oval head screws at the ends of the panel. This is why the end tabs are always distorted and need to be straightened during restoration.

Re: Dash bolt size?
But why is there three different head sizes for the 10/32 screws in the instrument panel?
