One mascot is French peugot and two English ,<AEL> I could use metric bolts but I like things to be authentic as possible. If you wish to be authentic surely the mascot should be fitted with a stud and not a bolt. I have owned a number of vintage cars with mascots on the radiator cap and not one of them used a bolt. The Peugot one would almost certainly used French Automobile Thread and the AEL one was probably BSF. If you can tell the difference between 8 x 1.25 French Automobile Thread and 8 x 1.25 ISO Metric without a shadowgraph or equivalent you are a better man than I. Russell |
