TR6 TR6 Bolt?

Hello, I caught the English car bug a little while back and purchased a 73 tr6. The car had been sitting for many years(but, absolutely no rust) so needed some attention. When I was done replacing the majority of the front suspension I found this bolt on the ground. Do not know where it came from or if it is even from the tr6. Does anybody recognize it? I only ask because, from my extensive restoration of early 67-69 Camaro's I can identify any nut or bolt. Thanks for any help. IMG_4524.jpgIMG_4523.jpg

Don't think it came from the 6

Whatever it is it looks like it went into a spire nut or maybe a captive nut.
There are a lot of spire nuts along the fenders, but the original bolts for those spire nuts had plain washers...maybe that one was used as a replacement.

That's what I originally thought, fender bolt, but have not found any missing. Thanks for your help poolboy.

Not a TR stock front suspension bolt, for anything on the front end. After all these years lots of random things end up on our cars so not a huge shock to find things like this, bit nothing to worry about?
