67 Barracuda bench seat with fold down armrest

[65 Cuda 340]

One of the original bolts for the fold-down armrest in my 67 Barracuda is lost. These are the round headed bolts that are tightened with an Allen wrench. I substituted a bumper bolt for the lost original. Works OK except that it comes loose over time because I can't really tighten it. Is there a source for new replacement bolts, or is this strictly a junkyard item?

OK, that was a dumb question. They are just a 3/8-16 button-headed cap screw with Allen hex drive, nothing special. Just ordered some from Amazon. Cheers!

Well, not so dumb after all. The original armrest screw was 5/16-18 and was a shoulder bolt. Apparently when I put the bumper bolt on one side a couple of decades ago, I drilled and tapped the armrest on that side for the larger bolt. Anyway, for now I just put a new 3/8 - 16 cap screw on that side, left the original on the other side. If I have any trouble with the new bolt loosening, I'll look for a shoulder bolt in that size.
