Hmmm… Grade 5 flat head screws with conical star washers. Not likely to see those at the hardware store. Get the kit from your favorite Mustang supplier. Glazier's stocks them, likely they all do.

The door latch on the body? There is a striker for the door on the body, but no latch. Are you talking about hinges?

Excellent, those are 5/16 x 1" with a star washer. I have a bunch of them, too bad you are not closer.
