Thumbs up Need Help finding parts for stainless steel cowl band

I have the cowl band off my 1931 A and would like to replace the hardware to bolt it back on. Where can I buy new hardware ? Thank you!

I think you will need reuse what you have or find a donor band at a swap meet if you haven't called all the shops listed.

If the bracket is still intact and the bolt is broke, you can carefully braze on a threaded piece to the proper length. Not easy, but can be done.

Have you looked in Snyders; Brattons and Berts for new replacement brakets with bolts?

Thanks for your replys . Repairing my broke parts is the way to go. I called 4 different shops and the answer was no parts with out trim. Well this part is going on my Boat tail speedster so I will make my parts by hand. I will make a few extra, some one will need new ones some where. Again thank you all for replying I really appreciate it. Happy thanksgiving and eat till you PUKE. Don in N.W. Indiana
