@abe , the cast wing nut was not used on the F2; Ford part number 2C-1484-A was used from very late 1952 through 1956 on the F1/100 and used 1/2-13 threads.

The larger trucks of this time used a cone shaped (kinda like a lug nut) nut with 5/8-18 threads; Ford part 51-1476-A.

I've seen pictures of them.

Interesting to know that the wing nut started in late 52.

I'm the supplier of the reproduction wing nuts. They can only be purchased directly from me. I used to supply mid- fifties when they were in business.
