I know! The wheel vintiques wheels are a lot cheaper. I have some decisions to make. I think if I'm going to do it, I might as well do it and get the chrome spokes and a powder coated rim and brake cover. That's even more $$$. I'd like to run these to give it a vintage look. I saw a 40 on the HAMB with original style wheels, and I think it looks nice. I'm contemplating selling a couple engines and transmissions to get the pesos together for the wheels. We'll see what happens.

Of course I'm going to make a pitch for bigger wheels like 17s.......and I'd skip the chrome spokes, paint or powdercoat the whole wheel in silver or gray or body color with a chrome cap....but then it's not my car or my money!
