Thanks for the input and ideas fella's, for all I know before I bought this truck there was no 5/16 nuts on those inner fender well fasteners holding the hood sides in place and some "wing nut" put wing nuts on there.

I actually was able to clean and re-tap one of the other wing nuts but the other ones have the old fastener so rusted in place are junk.
