Left hand threads on left side of mopars

-
I picked up a 71 Duster 340, and after driving for 5 hours to tow it home, found it to be missing two tires. I had some with me, but there were only two lugnuts on the left side (drum/drum). I figured on grabbing some from the other wheels but found them to be left/left. Fortunately the local Crappy Tire had some in stock (small town) for .79 ea :)

As far of as the history of left hand one drivers side, my 49 Dodge pick had left hand bolts (yep bolts, no studs and nuts)on drivers side and right hand on the other as did my 51 Plymouth.
Back in 94 I took my 67 Dart to a shop to get tires, kept telling myself to remember to tell them about the left hand threads, guess what I forgot, was lurking around outside the shop(I'm never quite sure how strict some places are on people in the shop), see the guy going to town on the drivers side front with an impact, run in and tell him about the left hand threads, he reverses the impact and says, "That works a little better,"
