Can someone please tell me the bolt sizes, as in length of the bolts that attach body to front beam, the 4 bolts that attach body to rear torsion tube, and the 2 at back under wheel well I need to purchase? Cheers thanks

I would recommend a beetle wrecker for the beam bolts because they are massive, an odd size and not readily available. cheers

yep get some S/H ones for sure

BTW my car is a 1956, I might have them already in a box of loose bolts, just need to know the length of them

I think they are 25 mm long.I have 3 of them. Does this sound right?

Going from memory these are M10x1.5 Bolts..... nothing special and you should be able to get at any Bolt Place

cheers for that, much appreciated.

Yep m10x1.5 pitch and 25-20mm long. Also they need to be high tensile.
