Default Authentic restoration parts

1.Does anyone reproduce Anchor head bolts? Are they still available?
2.What about inner and outer tie rods with the Saginaw logo on the back cover plate? Or can these be rebuilt?
3.Does any one have any upper ball joint rivets?
4.I saw a post about the correct A-arm bushings ...Who carries these?

I was trying to find the anchor head bolts for the front sheet metal. It doesn't seem like they are sold through the restoration guys.
When I took apart he front end of my car I made a spread sheet with each location, bolt head mark, and type of finish. For example some locations had the anchor head bolt on the right fender then on the left the same location might have a different head mark.
As far as the tie rods go. What are you (collective) doing as far as your restorations and dealing with the Saginaw Logo on the back plate? Aftermarket? NOS? Rebuilt Originals?
Just going for the most authentic restoration possible.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
