Hi there,
My Model A Tudor is in bits and I'm trying to put it back together. Does anyone know what size nuts and bolts I need to mount the rear fenders.
Thanks

I have found this book to be a valuable aid in determining what bolt to use where:

That's great Carl thanks. I'll get one on order. In the meantime do you know what size fasteners I bed for the rear fenders on a 30 sedan?

Also check with the better known suppliers. They have nut, bolt, screw kits for most stuff. Much cheaper and better than the local hardware store.

I don't have the info in front of me, but I believe it is 5/16" fasteners. Starting at the running board, There are two carriage head bolts (heads to the wheels) then lockwashers and nuts. Then the next two bolts up fender to splash apron- 5/16 bolt, flat washer, metal pieces then flat washer, lockwasher and nut. Then there are 4 studs- fender, flat washer, lockwasher and nut. Then the fender bracket is held on with a couple fine thread bolts and lockwashers. This info will get you close. If no one else has more info I can double check judging standards tonight.

I don't have the book handy to me here at work. If you haven't been able to determine what you need, I'll try and remember to look it up later tonight.

Thanks if you don't mind. I won't be able to go near my car until Saturday now and it would be nice to grab the fasteners tomorrow. No worries if you can't👍
