am looking for some bolts....

[bikepaulie]

I’m building a 1964 Corvette and need the front wheel axle bolts, the left rear axle bolt, and the two rear rack bolts that are long enough to secure the fender struts and a rear rack.
It’s a nice blue Schwinn that’s a compliment to a women’s 1964 blue American. Just need a few bolts to have them riding together again.
Thanks and Cheers!

Do you happen to have a lbs, if so you should be able to go there and they should be able to help you out with the axle bolts and nuts.

Sure, but they wouldn’t look as nice as original ones.

HEY CABERS, THERE MUST BE SOMEONE IN THE AUSTIN AREA THAT CAN HELP THIS GUY OUT?

JFYI. Most Schwinns like your 3 speed Corvette has 3/8" rear axles and the front is 5/16". In that eBay listing above the seller does not specify what size those are. The heavy duty bikes including the tandems will have a 3/8" front axle.
