Picture of what calling slight angle vs. Joe's 69SS with greater ear angle.
The tooling teeth like marks are on the underside or what Darrell called serrations, whereas picture shows top side and correct sq nut.

Terry, looking at your wing nut it appears you might have the indents around the circumference of the hole that is underneath or mating surface Darrell is calling serrated.
Here is what Darrell is calling serrated, the indents or tooling teeth marks of some kind. This is off the above 69Z late 09D NOR car.

Thanks Chick. Hopefully these photos are better. I believe my wing nut is the same as the one in Reply #3 with only the 4 dimples (spot welds?) on the mating surface.
I'm happy to email photos if you or Darrell would like them.
