green slathered 914 alloy wheel lug nuts are a sign of the pristine, so much so that to preserve the stuff, I cover mine with factory black alloy lug nut covers, only to reveal what is underneath to special people like the concours judges

2 lugs with green paint. Who knew?


Don't get me started on that one. My car came to me with every fuching lug slathered with green. I guess the tech wanted to make sure everyone knew he had been there.


Yup. Mine still had the paint on EVERY lug when I got it. I asked the original owner why he left it on all these years and he said he wasn’t sure but that he guessed he had never really noticed or been bothered by it. Of course I have to leave it on now.









George where can one buy the black lug covers?

The black lug bolt covers would not be correct for a 1973 car.

Jeff is of course correct, as usual, in that they were first offered with the introduction of the 74 models. In the truest sense of the brotherhood of the concours weenies, when I show my 73 I remove the covers to like I said reveal the beautiful green slop, and then reinstall them when I leave. I leave them on when showing my limited edition cars (thank you Jeff for getting me the Matsuda car) and my 11,000 mile 76 that I dearly love
