Does anyone know where I can get a couple grill screws for my 68 Dart.

Any idea what thread pitch they are so I can maybe see if the hardware store has something that'll work?
 
Sheet metal or machine? Mopar had some funky splined shoulder sheet metal screws for trim.
 
They look like just phillips countersunk oval head machine screws that are pointed. I'm just curious what size and thread pitch they are. I'm hoping the hardware store has something I can use so I don't have to pay $25 for a screw kit online because I only need a couple.
 
Here's a picture of one of them (albeit a bad one)...

If practicle just remove the grill and take it with you to a NAPA store if you have one locally, they have a great selection of body fasteners.
Yours are most likely 10-32 fine or 10-24 course but like stated earlier Ma used an abundance of different sizes and pitches from machine - sheetmetal.
 
Mr G's for complete screw kits for one vendor. Lawson's is sponsor here. might check there. is RT Specialties still around???? some other vendors have all the funky nuts, bolts, screw, fasteners.....
