Default WTB Older GRC/VRC type panel screw

As mentioned in an earlier post, I have a Navy R-392 that uses the large
thumb-screw type fasteners instead of standard, hex-head bolts for the
front panel. They're like the ones found on RT-66/67/68, their
respective power supplies, and many other older GRC/VRC rigs. I need
just one of the "thumb" portions. They come off with a screw in the top
and lifted (pried?) off the fluted panel-side end. If anyone has a
junker unit that they could pull one of the things, I'd appreciate it.
It seems the previous owner pulled the tops off one of the fasteners so
the power cord could be routed to one side, instead of downward. Tnx
very much. de Jeep/K3HVG
