The attached picture is of the lug nuts from my late build 69 camaro. They were also plated Gold Iridite.

Boy Eddie, you are really getting down to the nitty gritty on that one. I have some 1969 air I kept in a tank all these years if you want it.

All kidding aside, I understand the quest for perfection. I am not on it, but I understand it.
I know I have two of those. Maybe a third. Will look and let you know.

My late 69 has at least three different ones: the one you pictured, the one with a waffle pattern (most common on my car) and a few with letters, I think RDW, but not sure. Also has at least two replacements that I am sure were not original. Maybe more.

NOW you need to find the correct, assembly line valve stem caps Fast Eddie. OR maybe you already have them.

Eddie, I have original assembly line &quot;Dill&quot; caps... if you REALLY want them?

You see these lugs? 1969 Camaro Lug Nuts

Interesting how the original packaging isn't included and Ames (a Pontiac reproduction parts house) is selling them.

yes i saw those lug nuts.....also, HBC sells the ones im looking for - repo's and they would need to be plated.

Dan, shoot me a pic of what is believe to be the correct DILL caps...i have some, but not sure the correctness.

Eddie:

I have some dill caps. Will look around and see if I can find them. I have about 25 of them, as I used to own an auto repair shop, and every time I put tires and new valve stems on a car that had the dills, I would save them. Unfortunately, I am in the middle of moving, so.... could be a while before I come up with those.
As for the air, I will squirt a little in the box with the lug nuts and caps (if I find the caps). It is up to you to re-compress it and get it in a tire.

I am pretty sure there was more than one supplier on the lug nuts. My car has a mixture of several. The most common one on my car (about 1/2) have a waffle patter on them. Don't believe there is any one that is &quot;correct&quot;. Kind of like the bolts holding the deck lid to the hinges. I had three of the four that were a match. The deck lid had never been off.

Yes, totally agree - there were more than one manufacture for sure.....im just going with what the majority of mine are....i have 15 out of the 20 with the diamond stamp.....not sure who that manufacture was.

Thanks for all the help!
