Working on the windows of my 1970 Cuda, and realized I am short a couple of bolts.  I had sent a lot of hardware off to be replated, and these must have gotten lost in the process.  What I need are the following:
1.  Quarter window shoulder bolt, 1/4-20 x 2.00.  Bolt has hex washer head, shoulder diameter is .378", shoulder length is 1.00", overall bolt length is 2.00".  I think the original Chrysler part number is 6028820.  Sent (2) off to the plater, but only (1) came back, so I need (1) bolt.  See pictures below.
2.  Door window glass guide & anti-rattle bracket mounting bolt, 1/4-20 x 3/4 long.  Bolt is a hex allen head with a captive washer and lead point.  Sent (2) off to the plater, but none came back, so I need (2) bolts.  I think the original Chrysler part number is 6027992.  Don't have a picture of this one.

I've searched R/T Specialties, AMK, and other sources, but haven't found anyone that sells reproductions.  Anyone have some bolts that would be willing to sell?
Thanks for the help.

 Are these the 2 bolts you need?

 I happened to be digging through a drawer organizer in my shop and found these bolts. It looks like I may have the one you need of these also.
Let me know if you're interested.

 @Gary AAR. I'm curious about something done before doing the plating on the long bolts. The threads have a nylon insert to lock the bolt into place when installed. I see it in your top photo on the right side of the threads. You can see it in the two bolts I have as I placed drill bits near the nylon pieces. Did you have to drill it out to remove it prior to plating and then insert a small diameter nylon rod piece after? If so, what diameter nylon rod? Looks to be about 1/16" diameter. Thanks.

I think if you were worried you could just use Loc-tite  :dunno:

71vert340, Yes those appear to be the allen head screws and the shoulder bolt that I need.  Let me know if your willing to sell them (price, shipping, payment method).  Send me a PM if interested.

I did just check the nylon insert on the shoulder bolt.  I did not notice this feature before I sent them off for plating, so I did not remove it prior to plating.  The nylon appears to have survived the plating process.  I did thread a nut onto the bolt, and felt a small resistance when it got to the nylon insert area.  I'm sure it's not as good a locking feature as when the bolt was new, so I'll probably use a little loctite as Alan suggested when reassembling.
Thanks for the help.
Gary.

The Allen head ones are hard to find, they're only used inside the doors....If anybody has a source for them, I would love to hear about it...

I guess I didn't realize they were hard to find. In fact until this post, I didn't even remember what these bolts were for. I guess now I remember they hold door/window parts. I remember removing them from some doors I had and what a pain using an allen wrench inside the door. That was years ago.
