I have some out that came from front disk. 1973. I could measure for you.

Yep, 10" drums all around.

Think they might be different on discs.

Thanks Alan, I will send that pict to my local speed shop!
So "knurl" is the part with the ridges I guess. New word for me..  :)

Sounds like a tall bearded man from Denmark. "Hey Knurl, get me another beer"!

@soundcontrol  You want to change to right and i plan on switching back to left on my car when i change the disk brakes on mine :rofl:

soundcontrol

Haha, yeah, I can see using Left for real restorations, but I'm gonna use my Foose wheels on this car, and I got all the RH lugnuts.
Now thinking about it, maybe it's cheaper and easier to buy Left lugnuts...hmm  :thinking:

Pretty sure it's a .650" knurl diameter. But seeing as you are across the pond, I'd tap out a stud and measure before I ordered.

Depending on your wheels, you might want longer studs as well ?

Not many old school parts shops around but I'm fortunate to know one near me. That old guy is amazing and has saved me lots of effort more than once. I knocked one out and left it with him. He found exactly what I needed in his books and ordered me up a handful. They are really inexpensive if you don't get them as kits from places like year one.

Took one of each out today, yep, looks likes Alans picture!
