Where can I get...
Where can I get the little clip in square nuts that are in the rad support and inner fender/s. They are those square nuts that are push clipped into the square openings, more specificly the lower hood latch, where it bolts to the rad support. I am missing one and the others are pitiful shape.

You might try Ace Hardware if you have them in your area... The ones around here have lots of different automotive mounting hardware like this. I've been surprized more then once that they had a clip or fastener for my rigs...

If it Looks good and Works good then it's ok by me. Everything has its issues from time to time...

Any good auto parts store should carry those. I've seen them at Napa here.

re: Where can I get...
Ok, I have been searching high and low and cannot find these cage nuts anywhere, at least ones that will work.
I tried Fastenal, and napa, and oreillys, nada.
Anyone else found these somewhere? Last resort will be the junkyard I guess.

I don't want to give em a heart-attack. That is what would happen if I answered the door in the buff. Heck it almost scares me to death when I step out of the shower and look in the mirror.~Mancar1~
