You can make them out of carriage bolts..... ------------- Hobby Boats can be expensive when the hobbyist is limited on their own skill and expertise. 1993 Shamrock "fat" 20. 2008 Nautique 196 5.0 |

Go to the local hardware store and get the bolts used for toilets....no joke! The take a little bit of grinding to get the heads to match the originals, but for 15? a bag you can't beat the price.
Take an original with you for comparison. If I was home I'd run out and get a pic for you but if you take a bolt in they should know what your talking about. ------------- |

Something like fourth from the left on the top. The ones I picked up are threaded the entire length of the bolt. 
Edit- http://plumbing.hardwarestore.com/51-291-toilet-bolts-and-washers/1-4-x-2-1-4-toilet-bolt-set--653877.aspx - here is what i picked up, the lines on the head give you some guidance to where you need to grind down to match original.  ------------- |

If Jeff did get the last batch off ebay, then anyone still needing them may want to use Jody's idea which is a good one. Stainless carriage 10-32's are available at McMaster part # 92356A265 for 1&1/2" length. ------------- /diaries/details.asp?ID=1622" rel="nofollow - 54 Atom /diaries/details.asp?ID=2179" rel="nofollow - 77 Tique 64 X55 Dunphy Keep it original, Pete < |

Dont worry, they werent the last set- the same seller has been listing and relisting those bolts for over a year. They'll pop up again. Edit: Theyre actually back up already: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/T-BOLT-WINDSHIELD-MARINE-HOLD-DOWNS-SET-36-BOAT-_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQhashZitem41561b99beQQitemZ280617523646QQptZBoatQ5fPartsQ5fAccessoriesQ5fGear - ebay For $15 you get enough bolts for at least 2-3 windshields... seems like a no brainer to me! ------------- |

Anybody have a current source? I can't seem to locate any on the Taylormade site or anywhere else. I found https://www.ebay.com/itm/Corvette-Windshield-Lower-Frame-T-Bolts-1956-1962-25-101436-1/173656430822?hash=item286ebad8e6:g:kFUAAOSwIbtb-DGy:rk:32:pf:0" rel="nofollow - these but I have no idea if they're the right size/shape. Any leads on some would be much appreciated. Thanks! ------------- 1976 Ski Nautique (PCM 351) - Currently under major renovation: floor, carpet, interior, gel coat, engine overhaul - ALMOST DONE! |

I would try contacting them. Should be easy if you can find anything else they are selling. ------------- 78 Ski Tique, 72 Skier w/302's, 93 SN w/351 & 17 GS22 w/zr409 Previous - 99 Sport Nautique w/GT40 and 87 Martinique w/351 |
