Default Center console/dash nut/bolt kit ?

My uncle changed out the heater core in my 75 ac coupe a long time ago. I’m changing it again and got it out right before I left for 6 days on the beach in Mexico. I figured I should visit the birthplace of my ZZ6 engine haha.

Anyway. 35 some odd years ago uncle did not put everything back exactly as it left the factory I discovered. Just a few minor details that I’d like to correct when I pop this thing back in its hole.

Do any any of the vendors offer a nut/bolt hardware everything kit for this job? If I know I have all the right stuff in front of me I can figure out what goes where.

The center gauge bezel only had four chrome screws that held it in place. There were four chrome headed screws. At the bottom of the center dash bezel there were two standard 10/24 (generic you can get at your hardware store) nuts that held the center dash bezel at the bottom to the shifter console reinforcement. Then there were three screws in the wiper switch plate, two are machine screw.

Bezel screws: https://willcoxcorvette.com/corvette...-4-piece-68-76

Or you can get this screw kit... it has all the interior screws... (still no nuts). Willcox

You can get all the screws in the FK09 screw kit from our site.

Hi,
"At the bottom of the center dash bezel there were two standard 10/24 (generic you can get at your hardware store) nuts"

I believe the original 3759924 nuts for the 2 threaded studs on the lower edge of the center gauge bezel had captured flat washers on them.
Regards,
Alan
