You can try Hydro-E-Lectric. Their site is www.hydroe.com. Phone is 941-639-0437. There are nine different types of top bolts shown on page 311 of the 1944-1952 Body Parts catalog. I can scan the page and post it if you don't have it. Many of the special bolts are eccentric to allow the adjustment of the top. My '47 was missing many of the bolts when I bought it, and I didn't find a place to buy them. If Hydro doesn't have them, they probably know who does. We finally made the necessary bolts in our machine shop. It was a big job, but without them, the top will never operate properly.

Call totally stainless.com. Doc Hammett will help you out. He makes the bolts. I got a set from him. Quality work. Price is reasonable. Bud
