Wanted: hardware for 1960's ZimGar

Posts: 1 Threads: 1

I have a 1960's ZimGar kit (which my uncle bought new incidentally) which is basically stock and complete except for a few pieces of hardware. Namely the claws and tensioner bolts to attach the rear bass drum skin and the tensioner bolts for the bottom rim of the floor tom.

The bass tensioner bolts are about 9 inches or so long with t handle ends. I need 8 of those and as many claws

I also need eight for the floor tome, but these bolts are 3 inches long or so and have square heads.

I've been cleaning it up and it looks really good, but I would like to finish it with original style hardware. I'm an auto restorer by trade so I guess I can't help it. I will post photos if I can ever find my camera.

Any help would be appreciated.
