what type of screw is this and where do I find 2?
« on: September 10, 2020, 09:06:38 PM »
This screw holds the front fenders to the frame. I've looked on line, but
don't know what to call it in my search. I need to replace them, but don't even know where to start.
I sure could use your help on this - and thanks in advance.

dluyk,
I literally had questions just like this from front to back and top to bottom.  This is why I purchased a Parts Manual.  They really come in handy.  Oldtime's got you fixed up.

FWIW, by the time I'd gotten all the paint on, I found out chasing the threads with a tap helped.

Thank you so much for the help. At one time I had the
manual downloaded - where it went - who knows. Your tips are so helpful.
Can't than you enough.
