Landau Buttons

Does anyone know if there is any supplier or shop anywhere that sells original or even reproduction Laundau buttons? I am missing the lower button and bolt from my passenger landau bar and have had no luck finding one.

I imagine its not a high demand item for reproduction.

Until I can find one I have removed the bottom bolt/button from my drivers side Landau bar so i can take it to home depot or something and at least get a bolt by itself to hold it in place. I'd feel better if it wasnt flopping around.
 
Those are incorrect for your car, they are S&S style. Which is odd because they appear to sell M-M style bars...?
 
As far as the bolt goes, will it fit though? If so I'm tempted to use it temporarily until I can find the correct one. Either that or ghetto fix it with a simple nut and bolt. Both would be temporary fixes though, it really boils down to appearance for now
 
Picture picture i may have one but it has been so long since i messed with one I'm not sure and I'm to lazy to go out and pull the cover off my 72 cb. But I'm sure the S and S was only a 1/4 20 bolt and the MM is 5/16.
 
we did the spring car shuffle today no snow or rain and around 67 degs out there. so went looking in my stash. found the no home yet buttons I have here. mine are the superior type but I did get one off my CB. in 72 CB started using the MM bars on there cars.

so here is what a 72 landau bar knob looks like. it is a 1/4 20 stud the superior has the bigger 5/16 stud

1/4 20 is right. Got a bolt at ace hardware this week to hold it in place. I may have found one though, will let you keep you updated.



Heres what im using for the moment though until then:
