CA Hard top nut plates

slow poke · Jun 27, 2018

I am helping a friend restore a beautiful 1971 uncut Bronco. The nut plates that secure the lift gate to the hard top were in very poor condition so I had some new ones made. I had 4 sets of nut plates made as the cost was only a bit more for 4 sets than 1 set. If anyone would like a set please let me know. These have 14-20 nutserts and were made by a local sheet metal shop. There are 2 plates included. Flat rate shipping is $6.70 anywhere in the US. I looking to get $20 shipped. I have 3 sets left.

Picture to follow.....

Thanks David, sounds like maybe you should order 4 more! ;D

Paul, thanks for helping with the pictures. All sets have been sold...sorry for those that did not get any. I would be happy to get more made if there is interest. I would need to make them in sets of 5 or more to make any sense.

David.

Got them today Dave looks like a perfect match thanks!

Another bonus: I can leave them right where they are until I’m ready to use, unlike other stuff I buy because it’s a good deal then when I’m ready to use I can’t find the damn thing!!!!

Wait! You mean I'm not the only one that this happens to? Phew... Now I'm not so alone.
You hear that Dave? You's guys'r gonna hafta stop haranguing me about that one of these days.
But hey, at least I didn't buy a set of these here nut plates before anyone else!

I'd say they are a good deal though. Especially if you can't find your old ones.
I wonder if they're the same as the rusty ones in my Ford camper shell on the pickup?

I forgot to ask slow poke. Are those plated or otherwise protected (stainless?)? Or should they be painted before using?

Thanks

Case in point, installed the hardtop yesterday and this morning I'm taking inventory of liftgate parts, vaguely remembered this thread so searched for it on my page...glad I didn't go looking for these nut plates!! ;D%);D thanks again Dave
