Jack Mounting

Hi,
Can someone post a picture on how the Jack gets mounted in the trunk with a SS1 rim on a 1966 f85/cutlass? I tried to mount the jack base as shown in the 66 Chassis manual but the wing nut wont go on the stud (not enough threads) that's attached to the floor pan. The stud seems to be to short.

Any of the cars with Super Stock wheels do not use a wing nut. There is a special nut that holds the whee in place. It is available reproduction.

Thanks for all the responses. I do have the nut for mounting the rim to the car but my issue is with attaching the base to the bracket. Its to short when positioning it like showing in the picture. Base on Joe's last picture is the base not attached to anything?

The base is just held by the tire.
