Spent a couple hours putting the dash back together. Only thing I lost (Cheryl moved) where four of those strange shaped 50 year old nuts....no not Karl's nuts 
, the car's. The strange round ones with the rounded edges. None of the extra ones I had (car nuts) fit. A trip to ACE hardware.
All together except for the glove box. Going to do it after we put the heater box in.
Hopefully do it this weekend. If not next weekend.

Palnuts
Tinnerman nuts.
Tinnerman nuts.
I always save them when I strip a ca the new ones kind of suck
Thank you. Palnuts. I was just thinking about tinnerman nuts yesterday should have kept some from the USAF we used them all the time on the gauges in the cockpits. Handy stuff instead of a nutsert.
Thank you Zman, I hope all goes well today, I do know I will be in the middle of making (stirring) home made fudge with the wife..
I do to. Any old stuff I run across always take them. I just had all small ones.
Wonder if I can find a jar of them at Carlisle?? Give me something to look for.
Ohhh Mikeie Karl will get ya on that one.
Wait, just wait for it
For the ones I was short I got some speed nuts. They didn't quite fit though. Smaller one was to small next size larger too big.
Took the smaller ones and taped a Philips screwdriver down the middle stretching it just enough.
Turned them upside down and they went right on.

$30hr? thats half the going rate for a garage each one takes a hour $210 bucks
I guess I am doing something right with them. He bought a rebuild about a year ago and guess he liked the finish. Hell I don't even remember what I was doing with them that long ago!
Have been using aluma clean in the process also now. That stuff works great!
