Re: Lug nuts

They were all cadmium plated unless it was a town car which were chrome plated starting in April 29.

You really should. I bit the bullet and got my copy in the mail yesterday. Such a wealth of information.

Ummm, are you certain? The VE28 had some Nickle-plated lug nuts that were a carryover from the 26/27 era but those soon became Cadmium-plated. By 1931, ALL lug nuts were Cadmium-plated.
