Default Re: what kind of wheel are these?

Looks like one of the many Torq-Thrust copy-cat wheels from the '60s. Front looks cast while the back seems to be stamped steel, thus a 2-piece wheel. American Racing made both peaked (straight) spokes and round spokes (no crease/peak along the spokes) and yours seem to be round-spoke copies. Clean'em up and run them on the '57 with a set of redlines or pinstripe whitewalls!
