C1 Air Cleaner Wing Nut

[Gene B.]

Does anyone have a picture of a correct wing nut? I assume the single carb and dual quad are the same.

Thanks Gene

61 dual quad has 2 long bolts - bolt heads probably 7/16 ( I can look at mine if you need me to) base of the the bolt head is flared out.

Thanks for the response. but I am looking for the wing nut that holds the air cleaner to the carb. Specifically for a 1958.

Gene I asked the same question for my 62 awhile ago. There was no very positive response. See the link below.

Research the sold items at EBay. I believe one of these just sold for a large sum of money.

Re: C1 Air Cleaner Wing Nut

Chris, I looked at the pictures of the wing nuts. Thanks. Great Pictures. I do have what I thought was the original wing nuts, but I have heard so much from people about them and no one seemed to know for sure what was correct. The one in the middle is about the same as mine. I think the wings on mine are a little bit different, but that is from a 58. They are shorter, but not as short as the Paragon Repro.

BTW what is a large sum of money?
