The nut that holds the steering wheel boss

[Jonny1]

I am restoring a 1956 Austin Healey 100 4 and the nut that fits on the threaded end of the steering column that holds the steering wheel boss is missing. Does anyone know the description of this nut? Can it be easily obtained? Can I pick it up at BAP? Is it the same as an XK120 Jag or Volkswagon?
Your comments would be appreciated.

Hey Cottontop,

I am soooo serious about finding parts that your joke went way over my head.
Rest assured that I laughed ASSembly off when I read it again today. Great Healey you have.

After reading your response, I was hoping that your tongue was as firmly planted in your cheek when you read it as mine was when I wrote it
