1980 Pontiac LeMans Station Wagon - G-T-faux (stuck with it, and can't shake it... like a bad case of herpes)

Does anyone know what size these screws would be? Mine are missing... there is just a single bolt holding the hinge in place.

Try an M10 1.5, 20mm. Does the single bolt you have have a point or flat end?

**UPDATE**

I looked in my bolt bin and I think an M8 1.25 20 mm is more likely to be right one. IIRC, they had a captured washer under the head.
 
In other news... these are done - just waiting for the paint to dry.

Managed to earn myself a trip to the ER and ophthalmologist this weekend while working on this. Nothing like having debris picked, scraped, and ground out of your eye (twice)... but, big brakes are coming - LOL!

The S60 has arrived! And luckily I sold off all of my extra rearends to (help) offset the cost of entry...

This thing is an amazing piece of of artwork - shame I am going to paint it. The 175lb/in coil-over springs sit on the perches perfectly, and is going to work great with the adjustable perches from what I can tell. It also comes with multiple shock mounting points as well (I didn't know that when ordering) and is fitted for LS1 brakes.

That is a stock 8.5" axle next to the Strange 35 spline bad-boy.

Sexy!

Who did you buy it from? There a place here in Wichita, Ks that sells them for g-bodies.
 
Very nice looking rear 😀

Thats really cool! My car has no bracing at all, none! And its making a good bit of torque. I was thinking about boxing a separate frame or something but the entire idea is exhausting to even think about. This is a much nicer deal.

So did you have to weld anything to the frame? Or do the smaller pieces act as a "washer" on the back side?
