Radiator cowl bolts

[Mr Spigot]

Can anyone tell me what size the 4 bolts are that fix the radiator cowl to the body?
Thanks

1/4in BSF x 3/4 long at a guess?

I have used 6mm stainless steel nuts, bolts and washers. They are cheap and easy to get, no one will know the difference.

[Mr Spigot]

Thanks. My other research suggests that they are 1/4 UNF, so I will go with that. While metric sizes will do the job, it then means that your AF and Whitworth spanners won't fit. Nobody will know until the next person to tackle them, who will curse and swear!

That often happens - as many of us know to our frustration!

I was up the garage just now so checked mine with some Whit Spanners... Nahh.

10mm socket fitted perfectly though, so they're 6mm bolts; probably fitted back in 1999 when he had major overhaul/rebuild.
