Broke one off with the stud in it. Hoping to find just one and not have to buy the expensive set of 20. This is the 2-1/4 inch long closed chrome lug nut used with the bolt-thru wheel cover option on first- and second-generation Barracudas, with the 14 x 5-1/2 inch wheel option. See photo.

Willing to pay a reasonable sum for a decent example -- need not be perfect -- plus shipping to Menlo Park CA.

Thanks for looking.

Why not remove the broken stud from the lug nut? Any machine shop should be able to do this if you can't do it.

...for $75 (was quoted). I was hoping someone would be cheaper than that.

I can tell there's no chance I could extract it. It's flush to the end with a twisted break -- a drill would never stay on center. It was at 50 ft/lbs when it snapped. And I have no welding capability, to weld something on to twist it with.
 
I forgot to add, it's a right hand nut... meant to put that into the title.
 
Do you just need one. I have some from a 65 Barracuda. Are those the same
 
Do you have a local high school with a shop program. Great teaching moment, you can youtube a video how to do it. They can weld inside of a nut and clamp and remove.
