ford wheel nuts

anyone got any ford wheel nuts for alloys? they're for some capri wheels but i'm guessing any of the older ones will be the same.

thanks

Careful with the threads ford did metric and imperial sizes and alloy nuts were available for both and they are almost the same size so one fits on the other (one way round anyway) guess how i found out on my first kit car.

If they're the ones with the loose 60deg chamfer washer, I got a set from a breakers. Ford Puma was one donor I remember knicking them off.

Mine were for four spoke Capri Laser wheels.
