Anyone know where I can find some of those style lug nuts? Similar to the ones Tyler used in his how-to? I'm working on a slight variation of it for my '49, but I can't find a place to order them. Thanks
I got mine at a swap meet for a buck a piece. They look just like his, which look just like these.... http://www.tradeunion.com/toplineproducts/index.html
I'm pretty sure Radir sells 'em...if not try E.T. Wheels. If memory serves, they come in two diffent lengths...
Lucky's Speed Shop in Garland has them. 972-205-9777. Not too awefully far from you new shop. Come on out Saturday for the Krawl and pick ya' up some lug nuts while your at it!
Rev- I just put em' on my shoebox and had my center hubs chromed. I saw your post yesterday about lug sizes, but never got to reply... You want 1/2"-20 Wayne at Lucky's has them.... Here is what they look like once they are on... HC
Top line sells magnum lugs too! A good marketing person would call them shotgun sluglugs. just a thought
You can get the bullet shaped lugs from Topline and Mr. Lugnut. I've also seen them at the local swap meets set of twenty for 10 bucks. I have another set on my '54 I got from Moon Eyes, but they were way over priced.
i got the nuts and the bullets here from the "lugnut king" at the swaps a week ago. try lugnutking@msn.com this is the usual cheap lugnut guy, they used to just have em in taperd seat, but now i got them from him in mag style, buck a piece...but the real deal is the bullets they now have! they come in two sizes, to fit popular wheels from the back, its about damn time somebody made some CHEAP bullets...$5.00 each! here they are stuck on a rader and a hollywood mag.
I talked to the Lugnut King at the AMBR show, I was trying to explain to him what the spider where and what not, I told him to get a set from mooneyes and have them repo'ed in HK. I told him he'd make a killing with the hot rodders.
Hey are the original Radirs aluminum centers with chhrome plated steel barrels or all aluminum? I know the repops are all alloy.
old raders are alum/steel. snacky, yes the mag lugs i showed work with supremes! long as you got standard threads...i hope you got standard threads!
OK, CAN ONE OF YOU GUYS that sees this Lugnutguy at the swaps get me a set for the 54? I am running steelies. Ray? Beuler?
