Pretty common on trucks and trailers and that looks like the door of the old Isuzu we had and a quick Google search shows they used lh lug nuts. It was a pretty good truck.I didnt realize that was a thing.
Meaning: Using lh threads for lugs.

I have also seen and worked on some older cars that had left hand thread spindles on the left side and right hand threads on the right side. The spindle nuts tighten the wheel bearings and were also retained with a cotter pin.I knew about "wrong way" threads because of the directional "knock-offs" or "knock-off spinners"View attachment 80017 used in racing and Ferraris, Cobras(?), etc. I'm sure there are plenty of expensive stories around...
Is that yours Bimota? That would've been a heart-in-the-mouth moment, especially cornering I would think...
