Default '78 door hinge thread

Searched the forum and several vendors but can't find an answer. The door hinge bolts on my '78 seems to be metric. I'm and old NF or NC guy so I need some guidance in the MM dept. Need to clean up the threads because I tried to drive a 3/8" NC into the hole.

Someone know what thread was used?

Thanks, Blain

They are certainly not metric. 3/8 fine.

Well, I feel like a dork now. I realized I have a thread pitch gauge.
3/8"-16, NC.
