They are headlamp adjusters. I have some NOS GM ones I purchased in 1996. GR 2.737 Nut/Screw #3-5956686 Not sure if GM discontinued them but you may want to give a GM dealership a try using those numbers. David

Give it a shot.You amy also want to try Ebay.There are some on there cheap for other GM cars (Chevelle and Camaro 70/71,etc...) that look similar but i'm not 100% sure if the square mount is the same dimensions as ours. Mine are not for sale.They have been sitting in the little paper package waiting for me to have the money to finish my car so they can go back on  David

You can also buy them at auto parts and body part/paint stores.

FACEFIRST, It's nice to see another person in my age bracket with a classic FGF! I was 20 when I got my 1968...I'm almost 23 now. Anyway, I had the same problem when I got my car. What I did was go to a local Fastener specialty shop (Facca Fasteners here) and got some GM license plate fasteners. They look different but they work fine. You can order the real deal through Classic Industries I believe or you could try Ames Performance or NPD to name a few.
Good luck, Ben

You'd be surprised what the corner parts store has for our vehicles. I always check, never hurts to ask.

Another good place to check would be OLD body shops. Most never throw any hardware away.
