55-59 Door hinge bolts

My TF truck build is of the Johnny Cash Cadillac variety; a piece at a time. And this can be a real pain. I need door hinge bolts and can't find these listed anywhere. Does anyone know where I can get these? Hinge to door and hinge to cab bolts Thanks

Thanks OrrieG. They are 3/8-24 X 1" serrated head cap screws, but I can't find them listed for sale individually. Does anyone know where I can buy these?

Re: 55-59 Door hinge bolts

Any good hardware store with a fastener department like Ace, but they are a little more expensive than Fastenal or other nut and bolt places. McMaster Carr has a great website that I go to to.....1. find if it really exists and 2. get an idea of options and questions I need to ask and 3. get an idea of a fair price. I order stuff from them too as shipping is pretty fast and reasonable.

Try Fasteners if you have a local Fasteners store. I deal with their local branch all the time and hey don't quibble about small orders like the local Fastenal store does.
