Bolt size?

Post by Egz »

When I start my restoration, what am I to expect in terms of bolt sizing? Metric or Standard? (or worse, Whitworth) I could make a historical justification for either.

Hoping for metric, as that's what the majority of my tools are.

Thanks

If your car has the original engine it will be SAE standard for all as it's a 1967. In late 67 the drivetrains became metric but the body and chassis stayed standard throughout production.

Thanks!

I guess I'm going to have to start investing in SAE tools now.
