Default Screws/bolts

Where can I find original style screws and bolts? Local hardware stores only have Phillips head. Thanks

Buy them with instructions included. I bought an "interior kit" and it has no instructions for which screws go where. All of my original screws had been replaced when I got the car, so I am having to sort it out on my own. That's not as easy as it sounds.

Karl,
The best supplier of Ford correct hardware is Roy Nacewicz. He has catalogs by the specific year groups with kits with proper numbers. Call him at 734-654-9450. Michigan.

As some of the other have said, call Roy. I have dealt with him for my '32 wagon, and he is very helpful!

I do not know for sure, but I have been told that Ray N. includes instructions. A call to him will verify that.
