I see nobody has responded yet with one of these sitting in their parts bin yet.
Have you checked with some of our Featured Commercial Suppliers who are giving our memers a nice discount? I would recommend checking with Kurt Kelsey and California Pontiac Restoration as both deal in some of the older parts.
Have you checked any interchange? I would bet this is a common item over many years. |

I've checked with the parts places you mentioned but no luck. This nut also fits '55 and '57 models. It seems everybody has wing nuts but no one has the regular straight hold down nut. |

I have found the spare tire hold down nut that fits a 1955,56 at East West Auto Parts. |

Congratulations! What a strange thing to have such a hard time finding.
I hope they don't know how rare they are becoming (and charge accordingly).
Thanks for passing on the source. |
