Door Striker Bolt ????
Looking for Accurate Reproduction Door Striker Bolt
with TORX looking head.............although Ive read these were not actually TORX .... CHQ offers a Bolt with Allen Head I removed "TORX" style from my 07E Norwood 70 Camaro |
My 1969 Camaro built 8/28/1969 also had/has torx. I finally found some NOS stikers on Ebay. The oe part number is 8770193...Joe

What about these? (on ebay...not mine, just found them w/a quick search).
I don't think anyone repros these with both the rotating integral sleeve and the Torx head. Note: There seem to be plenty of the NOS GM Torx version.....WITHOUT the rotating sleeve. But probably incorrect for what you need. I'm not a Chevy/Camaro expert but have dealt w/buying these occasionally for Olds and Buick customers. AMK Products used to show them in their repro fasteners, etc catalog but I asked them a few times about them and they apparently never had them made. ebay link: https://www.ebay.com/itm/17604795647...d48747c6d56d2c |
You are in Washington state and you can't find these in a salvage yard?
|
Many years ago i used to go to junk yards and remove these from 4 door cars the ones on the rear doors had hardly any use on them
|
I have not yet tried finding old used striker bolts...........
I only see the New ALLEN Head Versions being sold ??? Just curious why the original TORX head style are not reproduced |
Who knows why??? May be a deal where MOST folks are fine w/just getting a new set, even if not EXACTLY like the originals.......they can buy a new pair for relatively cheap $. I'd wager to say that most owners aren't really that worried about the "variation" in the looks...functionality is the same. Many others aren't even aware there is a difference.
So....the repro folks invest once and meet most of the demand. Would be interesting to know exactly which years used which style across the GM brand/model lines.....that might tell you where the most "demand"(ie - torx vs. allen head) would be. |

I recently removed these from a Chevelle I am re-restoring, no idea of source.
If you can clean/refinish them for use pm me your address and I'll fire them your way. Bill W |
