Give Tom at RT Specialties a call....570-388-1082.

He usually has bolts, nuts, hard to find fastners, etc.

From what I've heard lately I'd shy away from Paddock (check out post on FABO) sorry I can't provide a direct link. Availability and returns are "iffy" at best. Can't verify this personally however, in the past I've delt with Paddock with no problems, but recently they evidently have had some problems.  :dunno:

Flores-
Pickup some Mopar mags, especially Mopar Collector's Guide.
All mags are full of advertisments.
Then, go online and review the sites.  The sites generally post prices.

Aside from Dave at Roseville Moparts (where I just ordered some exhaust tips today),

look at:
Megaparts; http://www.megapartsusa.com/categories.asp

Detroit Muscle; http://shop.detroitmuscletechnologies.com/product.sc?productId=136&categoryId=51


Mancini; http://www.manciniracing.com/

There's too many to list.  Take some time and research.
Before ordering parts, recommend that you post here and ask about the vendor.

I did for Mega Parts, and replies were very positive, and guess what, they were right.  :2thumbs:


Hope that helps,
Ron
