body "J" clips
Any sources out there for the clips to mount front inner fenders to front fenders. Hoping NAPA might be able to get them, but hav'nt called them. These kids today wouldn't know where to look on their computer if I don't give them a part number
GMC Pauls has them, but shipping will be 2 or 3 days

Re: body "J" clips
Believe it or not, I found these recently at Lowe's for my tractor hood, which is also a 1970. I guess it depends on your area too, mine is both residential and rural

Re: body "J" clips
Jim
I have ordered all the way up to 6pm before and still get it the next day between 930 & 11am. Seems a few months back they must have made a deal with UPS because everything used to ship ground (which i still always get next day but in the afternoon) now everything goes out next day air and I get it in the morning. What they charge for next day air is unreal. I can get a box of bolts say 8lbs and a foot square and the next day charge is only like 6-8 bucks. If I had to ship the same exact thing back to them, even using ground rates, it would cost me probably $20. I would hate to guess how many people are in the shipping dept for them
