Topic: 67 SJ rear quarter extension screw type

[67gta289]

I lost track when car was repainted in 1982 - what type screw would you expect for a 67 SJ rear quarter extension, the (only) one applied from the outside, at the bottom.  Also  would this have been painted?  Thanks.

Early Dearborn example shown in the attached pic - highlighted in yellow. One of the large flat head self tapping type.  Car was repainted.

John : As I'm sure you saw, the 1967 Body Assembly shows this as 376357-S101. Of course, this does not appear in the Standard and Utility Parts Catalogs. However, in AMK's Guide to Ford Fasteners, they show it as SST, Self-Tapping, Oval Head Phillips, with a length of 3/8". As far as being SST, it may have been since it had an S101 finish, and an exterior application. Although, I have seen AMK listing SST quite a few times when the actual finish was unknown. Since S37 would be "normal" for an Exterior use Chrome Finish, it is possible that the S101 might be SST ?

To clarify, the material and finish are shown on the actual hardware drawing, 376357. AMK used that drawing in creating its "Guide To Ford Fasteners". Finish code "-S101" is defined, in general, as being documented on the drawing. You need to see the drawing. In effect, we don't know.

That was fast! Thanks for all the replies.

The AMK supplied kit uses stainless steel. I see oxidation on originals that Jeff supplied images of and on the one (and only 1) that I removed from my build was oxidized as well...if I ever stumble onto it, I will report back.

Correct/agreed they are always rough and oxidized if exposed to the elements after all those years. Not stainless
