Understanding the letters on the bolts

[Michael Maresca]

I would like to understand the different letters on the heads of the bolts for my 67 GTX. I noticed 2 different ones that are used in the front end. One has a G over and L. The other has a N and L attached to each other. Is there anyone out there that can explain?

Just the manufactures markings...

Like dadsbee said, manufacturer mark.
I believe the GL is for Great Lakes Fasteners. NL National Lock Fasteners.

There are two pages of bolt markings in the MCC restoration guide:

Do certain bolts go on certain pieces? On my car, the GL bolts fasten the Stone Shield, while the NL fasten most everything else up front.
