Unconventional bolt - please help identify

[Bob Kontak]

These oddly shaped flat flange headed bolts hold the big mirrors onto the side of this 65 International I am sprucing up. Any idea what they are called so I can source a handful? I am missing a couple and need eight. Acorn nuts should be easy to find.

Those look like resistance weld studs to me, they should maybe have be projection welded into the door about 100 years ago....

T-bolts

[Aerkuld]

Yup, what he said ^
Tee Bolt 1/4"-20, 20 PK (more choice) - POWERTEC

[Shaun @ Tru6]

This style of bolt slides into longhood aluminum bumper trim and then through the front and rear bumpers.

You could probably use an elevator bolt if you can't find the exact replacement.

[Bob Kontak]

Yep. All good, my friends. Thank you. This should be easy.

Thanks for the link, Aerkuld.

If you have a local Fastenal they probably have them

Those look like an option as even the "perfect" t-bolt will have to be subjected to the bench grinder to fit the top of the door mounting location. Thanks.

What a coincidence. My landlord worked at Fastenal for years and he just came to the shop. "Steve' come here and look at this. Would Fastenal have these in stock" He says, not in stock. "That's a weld stud and you can get them at any welding supply house."

Nice!

More pictures of the International. I have a 63 in my side yard now. Grandpa bought it new. 30K original miles. Looked good until the barn fell on it.

Sort of like the stud version of a captured nut

When a stud like Bob works on it, it is the stud version bolt.

How cool is that? You really want to get me started, lol? This one has about 15k on it. Was a fire station truck It's the 4wd, D1300. Can't hit 50 mph on the freeway.





After five months in shop (among other projects).



22 holes in roof plugged with weld (professional welder, and I held the brass rod inside the cab) and many peeps (across time) on hands and knees installing and repairing sirens/lights.



Filler primer after epoxy.



Washing etching acid out of interior.





Before any wet sanding

A customers but more a friend than an arms-length customer.

Quick story. I broke the passenger door window when gutting the door. I freaked out. Found an IH salvage place in Washington state. "Is there any way to get another window?" Guy says "Relax, I have 50 of them in the yard". They are all the same regardless of model across many years. Phew. $80 - Sold!
