These 200s wheels are presently on my 70 Trans Am. I bought these from a friend back in 1975 and had them on the car up until the mid 80s. I put them on once in awhile just to change the look when I go to the local cruses

These two-piece wheels have a beautiful chrome finish, and would look great on any vehicle, be it vintage or new.

Re: Vintage Wheels-Cleaning
 
I picked up an old set of Torq Thrust D's in survivor condition. They do need a good cleaning but they do not need a restoration. The natural centers currently have a gold colored patina and the machined lips are a bit oxidized. I am looking for suggestions on how to gently clean the centers (without loosing the gold tint) and clean the lips of oxidation without giving the lips a polished look. Any suggestions?

Re: Vintage Wheels-Cleaning
 
Try warm soapy water and a semi stiff scrub brush to get into the pores of the wheels. I always start with the most mild applications first and step up the intensity if it is not working. Good luck!

Jim ,

that 69 chevelle would look good with any tire wheel combo!

Is that the cover car from muscle car review a few years back?
