I saw this on a red Torana sedan with a black bonnet at the Old's Cool Car Cruise today.

I spoke to the owners brother who told me that the owner was aware that one wheel nut was missing and did not think it was important. It would appear that either the studs are too short or one has snapped. Hopefully someone on the forum knows the owner and can convince them to get it sorted ASAP.

I wonder if its a commodore rim on a hq stud pattern that has caused the stud to snap. Does not look central in the hole. Might just be the angle of the photo. Either way your right Andy, not good could endanger other innocent people.

The closeup is cut out of the larger picture so it is the camera angle that makes it look off centre.

No, although it did remind me of my hatch before I started on the latest rebuild. My hatch is not an SS either.

I took this photo of my hatch the day before I stripped it. With any luck it will be back on the road for next years run.
