Thread: 41 Willys Gasser project

The garnish moldings fit their spaces perfectly, which you'd expect with the molds pulled from original metal but still it says something for your craftsmanship, and I really like the diamond pleat panels. I like little oval head screws with a countersink head for that location. With the right countersink in the molding they're flush around the edge but stand very slightly proud with a bit of crown, and I like the Phillips head over slotted, but that's just personal preferences.

For us they're "Oval Head Phillips" in sheet metal screws, but "Raised Head Countersunk" makes perfect sense, too - Sheet metal screws, Phillips oval head - Bolt Depot
and they also come in slotted, but I much prefer the Phillips - https://www.boltdepot.com/Sheet_meta...head.aspx?nv=l
