Thanks Steve,
Yes, the bolts are bronze, but most of the nuts and threads were either broken off or corroded and not reusable. One of the bolts was almost completely eaten through in the middle with corrosion, half or less of it's original diameter.
Strange, because I assumed bronze was safe against that kind of corrosion. I think you're right. A good sanding and paint job should do it.

Thanks again.

Steve B
