Why Master Bolt Kits Make Restorations Smooth

When you’re rebuilding a classic, hunting down every single fastener is a time sink. Our master bolt kits (oem correct) deliver an OEM-correct foundation from the start—so panels align, trim sits flush, and the final fit looks factory. Each kit is curated to match original assembly specs, using hardware with correct head markings and finishes for an authentic restoration look.


Benefits of Using Master Bolt Kits for Classic Restorations

These kits are engineered to fit OEM-correct parts and high-quality reproduction components. That means proper thread engagement, washer diameters, and shoulder lengths where required—reducing rework and protecting sheet metal and trim.

Concours-Correct & Show-Ready

Whether you’re building a driver or a concours showpiece, these fasteners are concours-correct and show-ready, with head styles and finishes that mirror factory appearance. The result: a cleaner bay, crisper panel gaps, and a finish that judges recognize.

Four Core Categories


  • Body Master Kits — Fenders, core support, bumpers, hood/hinges, grille, wheelhouses, valance, and exterior trim.

  • Interior Master Kits — Door panels, handles, armrests, dash, console, seat hardware, and trunk interior.

  • Chassis Master Kits — Suspension/braces, crossmembers, steering, radiator/core support ties, and undercar hardware.

  • Engine Master Kits — Brackets, pulleys, timing cover, water pump, alternator, valve covers, and accessory hardware.


Master Bolt Kits are Individually Packaged, Labeled, and Ready

Every sub-kit is individually packaged and labeled by location. Open the bag you need, install, move on. It keeps your workstation clean and your build organized from mock-up to final assembly.

Made Right

Quality matters. Most fasteners are made in the USA, with materials and finishes chosen for durability and authenticity. Where specialty pieces are required, we source exact-fit equivalents to keep the system OEM-correct.

When you’re working on a classic car, truck, or any restoration project, the small details matter just as much as the big ones. Every panel, fender, hinge, and bracket relies on the right fasteners to align correctly and stay secure over time. That’s where standard body bolts come in — they’re the backbone of fitment, structure, and long-term durability.

At East Coast Bolts, we supply standard body bolts in the correct OEM styles, with the proper head markings, finishes, and thread patterns, so your project not only fits together right — it looks right.


What Makes Standard Body Bolts Important?

Body bolts aren’t just hardware. They play several key roles:

  • Correct Alignment: Body panels need precise alignment to avoid gaps and rubbing.

  • Long-Term Stability: Using the wrong bolt can lead to loosening, vibration, or premature wear.

  • OEM Correctness: When restoring a classic vehicle, the finish and head style matter for authenticity.

  • Corrosion Resistance: Proper phosphate, zinc, or stainless finishes ensure your vehicle stays solid for years.

Whether you’re replacing a single panel or building a full show-quality restoration — using the correct bolts matters.


Common Uses for Standard Body Bolts

Standard body bolts are used across the entire vehicle, including:

  • Fenders to Body

  • Core Support & Radiator Support

  • Hood Hinges

  • Inner Fender Wells

  • Door Hinges

  • Bumper Brackets

  • Radiator Shields & Splash Guards

If you’ve ever struggled lining up a panel, there’s a good chance the fasteners were mismatched or worn out. The right hardware makes the job smoother every time.

We won't screw, but our fasteners will

Every bolt tells a story — and ours starts with one goal: to make classic car restoration easier, more authentic, and more affordable for builders across America. From our home base in Winchester, Virginia, East Coast Bolts has grown from a small operation into one of the most trusted names in OEM-correct automotive fasteners for vintage GM, Ford, and Mopar restorations.


🧩 From Hand-Sorted Bags to Master Kits

Our early days were simple — sorting fasteners by hand on a workbench, labeling each one with painter’s tape and a Sharpie. But as demand grew, so did our system.

Today, each Master Kit is designed, sorted, and labeled by section — body, chassis, engine, interior, and under-hood. Every kit uses OEM-correct head markings, finishes, and sizes, just like the originals that rolled off the assembly line in the 1960s and 1970s.

We believe that restorations should look, feel, and function like factory — and that starts with the right hardware.


🚗 Expanding the Line — and the Legacy East Coast Bolts story

Over time, East Coast Bolts expanded from individual restoration kits to full master kits for GM, Ford, Pontiac, and Chrysler models. We added stainless-steel kits for marine and coastal builds, chrome fasteners for show cars, and modern replacements for body shops and custom shops alike.

Our promise has stayed the same:✅ Accurate fitment.Quality materials.Fast, dependable shipping from Winchester, VA.

When you order from us, you’re not buying generic hardware — you’re buying fasteners backed by experience, tested in real builds, and sorted by people who know restorations inside and out.
