I am looking for some 1928 Model AA Lug Nuts used with the AA wire wheels. They had a 15/16" hex and looked like a top hat (see the two versions on the left in the photo below). The first design was taller and a shorter second design started in mid '28. I have plenty of the later style acorn nuts (1-1/8" hex) shown on the right in the photo but would like to find some of the 15/16" hex (top hat style) ones. If you have one or 23, I'm interested if the price is right.
Thanks,
Fred

Here's a better view of the Top Hat lug nuts I'm wanting with dimensions - I am interested in either size but need 23 to have a matched set.
Thanks,
Fred

Fortunately I just bought a Model AA truck which had the short (one inch) "top hat" lug nuts all around but it is missing ONE and a couple of others are damaged. I'm now looking for 2-3 of the short ones. If you only have one, that's fine - please let me know.
Thanks,
Fred

Bump, still looking. I'm interested in either style top hat - long or short.
