Default Re: 1933 can't start after recent restart

No, they did not change the direction of the threads on the nut. A left-hand thread would be counter-intuitive as a left-hand-threaded nut would tend to loosen in use given the direction of the rotation of the camshaft (there's no lock washer underneath the nut), which is same on all Model A, B, and '33-'34 fours.
