i put them away so i wouldnt not lose them now cant find them lol need screws for head light rings ,also to put tail lights back in, also sill plate screws ? or if some one know size and length can go to hardware ,or if some one sells a kit for the 1963 dodge dart 2 dr hardtop all screws needed would buy that thanks
 
Ebay has sellers that sell entire interior screw kits for about 40 bucks. The screws are special : stainless or button head or countersunk, etc.seems like a good price for the entire lot. The rear taillight screws are a strange deaign. Sort of a course helix shank with a normal sheel metal screw tip.
 
None of the kits are totally correct. It's a bit of crap shoot if do not have the originals to compare against! List exactly what you are missing with pics and you will find help here!
 
Harbor Freight sells a stainless screw kit. Many of those work for interior in my 60's Mopars. Assorted, flat-head, round-head, pan-head sheet-metal type.

I bought one of these kits from E-Bay for my 64..They are very complete and labled.
 
MO 1405 1964-65 Plymouth Barracuda (2-Dr.) (141 Screws) 52.90
MO 1815 1966 Plymouth Barracuda (F/B) (171 Screws) 60.25

Where did the extra 30 screws go between a 65 and a 66 Barracuda interior?
 
I bought a fair bit of stuff from Classic Industries which was OK, because I'm in Australia I tend to use the 'bigger suppliers', a bit to do with confidence that they are legitimate businesses, I suppose. You guys probably know better than I do, (I'll stand corrected, no doubt) but they did have a huge range of pre-made kits of fasteners, and the quality was good.
 
So....
I called this guy (Tom ) and he knew exactly what I needed.
Spend $500 on front end stuff and PST doesn't include the split pins for the strut rods
Tom has them.... $5 a pair.
Try finding the correct mounting hardware for a fan shroud.
He has them... $10.

So how about posting a link/contact info for Tom for the rest of us? Please?

Much of the OE style fasteners come from AMK Fasteners out of Winchester, VA. This is where many of the vendors purchase the hardware and then rebag or make up kits.
