Trying to identify correct bolt dimensions and related hardware for the attachment of convertible frame to the body. There also appears to be a black plastic or some type of piece sandwiched between the bracket as seen in the photo.

So trying to source the hardware and figure out what that elusive sandwich piece is....

1955 copper

Originally used on 53 to 55 one on each side and are missing most times on restored Corvettes
