SOLDDo your own research. I understand these are difficult to find. Top one in picture has some damage. I believe it can be repaired, but you decide. PP F&F All 3 $70 shipped. OBO Thanks sYc:biggthumpup:

"I understand these are difficult to find."

Yeah, all the retards at the dealer and tire stores destroyed them with impact guns.
I don't think they are reproduced, unless it is a recent development.

Good point, but not only that Lynn, these are an early style I am told for 1970 Z &T/A. And yes, not correctly reproduced.

Much rather see an AMERICAN contact who would/could repop about 10,000 pcs.

SS427 03-20-2017 09:28 PM

Amen TDW! We as Americans need to quit sending everything overseas to get reproduced. All we get back is low priced junk and we need to keep our people working!

Those look like the one I got with my 74 z/28

Mr. Chevy 03-20-2017 11:32 PM

If those are the lugs I'm thinking of, they would corrode and swell under the metal sleeve and you could not get the correct lug socket on them due to the sleeve being swollen...

Reproductions are available, but they are not exact in appearance, and worse yet, the tapered area that seats against the lug hole in the wheel is FAR smaller in contact area than those originals pictured above. I found out the hard way and ruined a wheel because of it :mad:

Below are pics of 1st design and 2nd design lug nuts. I believe 74Z28 still had 1st design.
Not sure when change over occurred. Many owners back in the day must have bought new lugs over the counter as OEM/Assy line lugs got abused.
Vast majority of owners dont know the difference. Camaro Nationals 2nd Gen Judging is ONLY show I know of where these would be judged or looked at.

2nd Gen Z28 trim ring lesson pics while I was taking pics from my Photobucket

AMES Pontiac parts site sells a repro of the 2nd design that is very acceptable and affordable for all but the most
fussy owners........I've never been told why AMES didnt reproduce the very hard to find FIRST DESIGN

And it started @ $175,but had a BIN button for the $1,150 price.
Lasted 1 day,before one person bought it now.

CamarosRus 03-21-2017 06:02 PM

Mr 70/R.P. , In that EBAY ad, can you SEE where those lug nuts were in fact First Design as Ive shown above....

I'b be very interested to see the quality of car that they went on...

These are so rare .....I may be wrong, but not sure if any 70+ Camaro has ever
gone thru CAMARO Nationals Judging with "Born With" correct LUG NUTS.

m22mike 03-21-2017 06:11 PM

I captured these a few weeks back from ebay, are these the ones that ended B4 the auction end ?

Mr70 03-21-2017 06:53 PM

B4 the auction ended?
Mike,Those look like the exact same ones that I posted that sold in the Buy It Now auction above.

m22mike 03-21-2017 08:14 PM

Maybe I am confused, which is very possible :tongue:. That auction was awhile back, right ?

Mike

Mr70 03-21-2017 09:24 PM

This is the auction I was referring to that ended with a BIN on it's 2nd day on Feb 16th.
