Lost your steering wheel nut?   Here it is.

Hard to get; it is a special size: fine thread, metric, thin nut with washer.

Some of the early steering wheels have a small counterbore. This washer fits inside the counterbore to provide proper clamping of your steering wheel to the steering column. The pictures showing this nut and washer holding a steering wheel on are of a 56-59 semi-batwing wheel.  The small pic of the wheel with coarse splines is a 55 and earlier batwing wheel.  Some steering wheels don't have the counterbore.  I have a 3 spoke Standard wheel from a 56 that is without the counter bore.  In those cases, you can use the nut and washer in my other auction:
