Anyone know where I can get a brass/bronze rod about a half inch or so in diameter and about 8 to 10 inches long??? I need it for fill-welding the hatch on my '88 and the holes under the hood. thanks!

Are there any fabricating shop's nearby to you or metal supply houses...even some junkyard, scrap metal places may have it.

If you are looking online, try www.mcmaster.com they have just about everything and their website is pretty intuitive.

You might also call American Metal Supply in Blue Ash. They are good about dealing in small quantities and may have a scrap of something you could use for a low price. 513-396-6600
