Default Re: UPLOADING TEST PICTURES AGAIN OF MUSCLE CARS

Dennis, those are the old "Gennie" wheels from 65...14X7 straight spoke.They are Americans and the biggest PITA to find in usuable condition.I bought them in pairs and restored them to period correct.I have a NOS one I used as a template... I made a fixture and restored all the lug holes and center cap holes on a CNC mill.I recently found several sets of the old lugs to complete the period look.

Mr Moomaw was quite a gentleman . He gave me a personal tour of his dealership and spent about a hour giving me it's history. He was very proud of his dealership and it's survival in todays age of the googleplex chain dealers. His pride has always been in his service.I believe he said it started out as a Overland dealer..Yes, he asked for my number and said he would call if he found "anything" I may be interested in.

Thanks for the pic Rich...and yes Mike, I've often been call handicapped Can't wait to be out at Solon Commons..

Steve
