These bolts, 4 for each wheel, have rounded heads like Carriage Bolts. The original bolts didn't have the "nut" adjoining the head (as carriage Bolts do) so they would fit the weight hole flush for outside mounting.
My nearest dealer (30 miles away) tells me these bolts have been discontinued - that I understand.
I am hoping someone has (8) in a bin, (or) knows a supplier who re-made them.
Yes, I can grind the "nut" off today's carriage bolts, - but today's carriage bolt 'heads' are a bit larger than the originals.
Thanks to you restorers who can appreciate my request.
Dave (Massey 135) Bolts are: 4 1/2" long X 1/2" wide.
