Default Re: 70 Yenko Nova Wheel Paint

Marlin, with regards to the wheels being purchased direct from KH/M, that certainly could play a role in the color as it would be safe to assume that KH/M would not have to follow the specifications since they were not selling them to Chevrolet directly. In some cases, a manufacturer must actually make a change to a product if it is in fact being sold by cirumventing the distributor (Chevrolet,so to speak). That would be the only reason that comes to mind for changing the color as I can't believe KH/M would go the extra step to change the line. The debate just makes for interesting conversation.

I too do not know the reason for the wheel code change as I have never found the difference in the wheel.

As far as Vince having NOS wheels to look at, you can bank on it. As far as Vince letting anyone look at those wheels, don't bank on that one. Earl, Jim?????? I know I haven't been able to and I have been within 2 feet of them! [img]/ubbthreads/images/icons/crazy.gif[/img]
