I asked a machine shop once about adding threads to a grade 8 bolt and they just laughed at me. They said it would completely ruin their dies and doubted that I wanted to pay for their labor plus the

I never heard any feedback on this (Paul misinterpreted my question although he did offer some good leads on where to look for bolts) so I thought I'd try one more time. I can't find the bolts anyway

Not likely Whitworth. Whitworth fasteners were used mostly pre war, though some can be found on just post war cars- my old MG TD had more than a few. One possibility is BSF, but 1/2 BSF has 16 threa

Yup, could be. My TD was a '51, the same era as the 120, but very few Whitworth fasteners got into Brit cars after this time. Also a lot of people confuse Whitworth with other pre metric British fas

Good question. I prefer to clean the thread of my Sunbeam's bolts with a wire brush and chase the threads in a tap hole with a SAE fine thread bolt made to act like a tap. Just cut 3 or 4 slots down
