Default Pin drive pins?

I'm finishing (building) a kit for a customer who bought it partially assembled. The previous builder managed to booger up a few things, among them the pin drive pins. He ground them down to fit who knows what wheels so now they need replaced. I have no idea what kit this is. My customer thinks it's a "Legends" kit. He says Legends is a spinoff from ERA? I have no assembly manual so I'm flying blind. This isn't my first Cobra kit so I'm not worried, much. Here's a couple of pics. I'm hoping somebody here can direct me to where I can find the pins and maybe I.D. this kit. Help is appreciated.

If that's a spinoff from an ERA, it went completely off-track and hit a tire barrier.

If I am counting correctly, there are ten holes in the wheels, which means this is an adapted system, probably from Trigo. Do the pins actually act as lug nuts to retain the adapters? If so, go back to Trigo. If they're not, they're probably custom made to fit the Trigo or Halibrand wheels.

Default You're a pretty good counter.......

Thanks Bob. Yes the pins act as lugs to hold the knock off adapters on. I'll try Trigo. Like I said I have no idea who made this kit but it's up to me to make it road worthy. Sorry if I offended anyone. I built another Cobra kit a few years ago, I won't mention the mfg (it wasn't ERA), after a lot of re-engineering it came out real nice, Modified 428CJ, Tremec , 9" Ford non IRS & Wilwood 4 wheel disc brakes. Here's a pic of it and my little VW roadster.
