I thought it was some type of additional sheet metal piece that affixed somwhere to the outside of the front of the car. Thanks for the education on correct terminology.

I remember seeing a picture of a low mileage car the captive washer nuts were yellow zinc

I have a couple of photos of the bolts on the '69 Hemi road runner and the '69 383 (A/C) Super Bee survivors but not here....and my '69 GTX should have the original fasteners too so it's photo time later

Kevin, Said guide also states the voltage regulator bolts were phosphate. And i'm not knocking that manual. I have them and do refer to them from time to time, But Use it for exactly what is was intended to be ----- a guide
