Does anybody have an extra one? The 68+ "J" bolt won't work. Thanks 66 Coronet 67 Satellite 15 Ram 3500 12 Challenger R/T

'66 Charger. but is it the RIGHT one ? the correct bolt is not currently available , i was not comfortable with using a later j bolt in a 67 i worked on . matt if he doesn't take you up on it i'll take that bolt . if you aren't going to use the strap in the car cut it and let me get the nut off the bolt .

I find it hard to believe that they reproduce the tank, sending unit, strap, hoses, etc. for these cars and nobody makes the bolt to put it all in with. 66 Coronet 67 Satellite 15 Ram 3500 12 Challenger R/T
