I see a place for that kind of stuff on VERY low mileage cars or cars with many other NOS items allready on it. But for the likes of me, I am just fine with the repo lug nuts for 35 bucks!

I would consider those ebay lug nuts as aftermarket nos, they don't have the shelf between the hex and washer. Here is a picture of OEM for a '78 TA.

well I guess he does have them listed as CORVETTE NOS

and think a saw somewhere that t/a and vette acorn nut are close but not the same.

the boxes are old GM, but any one could fill them with whatever.

Call Modern Chevrolet in Winston Salem, NC and order them direct from GM Part #371674 Or Craig Motors in Napa. Both show 20 on the shelf.
