    Care & Feeding of Knock-Off / On wheels

    Ok Glenn, the nut has DROIT(French for right) stamped on right side nut (LH thread)so I guess I will go with you and the Delage factory on this one. I might add the car is 1921... Spent some time looking at my bench grinder this afternoon LH and RH threads.. Will

    Care & Feeding of Knock-Off / On wheels

    Great thread here, will agree with Jac Mac on this one. Haven't been here for a while(GT forum) but doing a little research on this as a Vintage Delage has come into my workshop with LH threads on right side of car that doesn't seem correct to me. Regards Will
