GTO's didn't use a 15 inch wheel in 67-68... the 14 inch 67-68 GTO trim ring was a brushed finish with the lip being polished. Big cars used a 15" wheel and it may have the "right" trim ring...

Ron,

This is the "open valve stem" area I am talking about on the ...704 trim ring unique to the 67 / 68 Z-28 only. If you look at the full size Impala trim ring, due to the different offset, the "open valve stem" area is shorter in length (shallower).

Hey But they were built by Humans...Right? So who really knows? I am going by what I know after having a few 68 Z-28's & being smart enough 2 have had purchased 2 NOS ...704 trim rings from a Felix McConnel back in 1999.

As They say....The saga continues...

Ron,

One option (you have probably already considered) is to find scratched and/or dented originals and have Rick Miller restore them. I've seen his work and it really is very impressive. They are show quality when completed.

Regards,

Mark
