I just threw some away, but I know that Lowe's sells them, and LMC probably does. Hope this helps

lowes huh? never thought of them. the ones i have seem to be like a shell nut, if that makes any sense. doesnt seem to be the rite application for them. do you know what im stammerin about? rich

Re: wtb emblem nuts
 

I have to go back to Lowe's tomorrow and if I remember I will look for them and snap some pics of them. I have seen them in the hardware section with all the drawers of stuff. I had a friend buy some from an unknown vendor, but they did not work at all. The original ones seem to be the best ones

thanx for help.

They are typically called speed/PAL nuts. I'll see if i can find our '67 hood letters. here is a link to a couple, so you see what they look like. I recall seeing these at an ace hardware. i dont recall the stud size on the hood letters.

This looks like a good buy $3.50 for 25 pcs., again not certain on the stud size.

I may be able to get you some NOS ones. My buddy was the parts manager of the dealership here in my town that closed down and he still has the keys and is incharge of selling all of the parts. I know he has some of these speed nuts because I got the ones sized for the center console emblems and he had a bunch of them. I will call him and see if I can get them if you wish.


Thanks PT
