Good Day,

You mention LH threads so I assume are you talking about the nuts to fit the wheel to the hub not the nuts to join the wheel halves together?

Try Auto Surplus in Mitcham Vic. They bought up a lot of old Ford blitz and side valve V8 stock from Cowley's Engineering in Geelong when he closed down. I went to Cowley's over many years and got a lot of NOS parts from him- Spring shackle pins, transmission gears, head gaskets, even the small oil bath air filter that fits atop the fuel pump stand. Would have been a big bin of wheel nuts there for sure.

Hope this helps and good luck with your search.

Cheers,
