I would like to buy gold anodized metric nuts and bolts 6mm 8mm 10mm etc dia, any length, that Toyota used to use. I would like to replace any many as I can on my 83. The gold color is long gone. I don't know if todays new asian manufacturers use them anymore? Maybe you dealer guys can throw any extras together. Aftermarket anybody know? Google search turns up no suppliers. Yea, I know this is stupid. Thanks.

 

I am replating all the bolts for my '83 full restoration. First zinc then a yellow chromate solution. I'll try to get some pics once its done

 

are you personally doing this or having a business do it .. if your doing it ,how about starting a thread on how to do it .

thanks !!

 

Good, let me know if I can do it in a closed room with the wife.

 

McMaster Carr or dealer
You are not going to find a "kit"
If you want then you are going to have to do the leg work.

I'm doing them by myself. I already bought all the plating equipment to do these. It was a few hundred bucks though for a smaller setup. I had been looking into this for a while and had originally gone to a shop but they wanted 300 to do the small lot I had and they were just going to ship it to someone else anyway because they only did things like chroming in house. The people I found online were non-responsive and only one or two of them had the capabilities to do yellow zinc plating.

 

I wait with great anticipation, Chemical Carl.

 

dude , take lots of pics and start a thread.. detailed how to .. if you dont mind
