YH wheel help
 

I have a YH wheel that has a 27 stamped in it for a day of the month but seems to be missing the month stamp. I am looking for 2/27 wheels. Were there other months that produced wheels on the 27th? It has the correct center for the earlier wheels. Thanks!

They made 1-27 and 2-27. I would suspect this is a 2-27 wheel as I have seen February wheel stampings drift all over the place.

in the pic u can make out the "2" ...faintly - but there - good rare date Feb wheels

I still can't see the 2! Thank you for everyone's help!

Me either.

I see it. More of the bottom of the 2 shows than the top if you look closely.

Sure enough.
Almost as hard to find as characters on the rough casting above the oil filter from 1969.

I can see a "2" now too... good eye!

I dont know why but this week of 2-27 had a guy stamping wheels all over the place. I know there is a wheel out there where the K19 2 27 YH is all on the right side of the valve stem hole.:blush:

Proof that Marty Feldman worked for Kelsey-Hayes Wheel Inc.

I can also technically be 12 27 YH

the only other month that uses the 2 in the date range.....i would have to look at the stampings to see how the 2 and possible a 12 lines up - but yes, it is all over the place on this wheel....either dates are good dates - 2-27 being the top of the list of rarity IMO

also - as we know the "2" is suppose to one on the left side of the valve stem hole!! then a big space for the date (on the right side of the valve stem hole)

Any possibility to get a light media clean on the stampings?
