I'm not sure I understand your reply. Are yours like the tall style shown in my picture? I am looking for that tall style

I looked in the 2019 Snyders catalog. It was in there, $128. Each.. Keep looking..
If I had a small lathe I'd make you some..
Good luck...

Re: Wanted: Early '28 AA wheel lug nuts
Thanks, I appreciate the effort but looking at my 2019 Snyders catalog I only see the early '28 lug nuts for the Model A car, on Page A-99. These are smaller than for the truck (11/16" hex vs 15/16" for the truck). Am I looking in the wrong place?

The flats on those nuts appear to be broached. They are not a lathe projectKimVanOrder wrote: ↑February 8th, 2020, 3:51 pmIf I had a small lathe I'd make you some..

Re: Wanted: Early '28 AA wheel lug nuts
Oh! But you start with Hex stock, not round stock. Or,, you can start with round stock and mill the flats. Or,,, you can just buy them...Chris Haynes wrote: ↑March 31st, 2020, 2:28 pmThe flats on those nuts appear to be broached.

Actually! I know how to turn the flats using a lathe. ( but now I'm just showing off...).. I used to be a shop teacher, then a machinist / die maker/ then Injection mold maker. Then went onto Advance technology manager of a large tier one auto supplier. Now I just mow the lawn.

If he could buy them this thread wouldn't exist. Better get back to your lawn.
