K's kits have a certain reputation, shall we say, in the UK modelling community.
I assembled my first few in the 60s, but I have a couple still in boxes. You might look at the thread on RMWeb.

The nuts and bolts are almost certainly BA (Whitworth) sizes. I have a small collection (somewhere in the unpacked bits) and our club will have sources, if you should lose any.
They are not compatible with either US sizes (NC nor NF) or metric.
I think the French series was one of their later productions.
