I'm wondering if anyone here has a source or part number for the 'Tinnerman' nut that is used for mounting the battery tray (1970 Dart)

Below is a picture of the inner fender with the tray removed. The Tinnerman nut (or whatever it's called) goes into that square hole next to the solenoid.

Here is what the sheet metal nut looks like. Mine is broken at the area where it is bent back over itself.

My local Ace hardware store carries those. Also Fastenal, McMaster Carr, Grainger and many more of those types of stores have them.
 
I bought a mixed pack of those from the local AutoZone. It was in the "Help" section. There were several different sizes and thread pitches. One of them fit and looked identical to my rat urine soaked and rusty original.
