Re: Rocket mags from '70's
Yep!!!
 Dat be dem. 14x6 with lee f-75's on the front and 14x8's with get this "J-60 Mickey Thompson specials" on the rear. This car seems to have a different set of wheels on it every other month. Eventually I will get something that stays on it unless I sell the car.  I might try a set of ET wheels next. OR THESE

Re: Rocket mags from '70's
I don't have any wheels but do have a few decals and a couple of Rocket timing tapes, a distributor hold down and power steering cap from Rocket. I found a couple of these in an old speed shop in Poplar Bluff recently. They had a couple pounds of dust on them...

Did the Rocket wheels have a Chromed Cast center like Cragars or were they stamped steel? I recall SOME wheel that had the same look as a Cragar, but was all steel. Maybe Appliance?  [/ QUOTE ] Dennis: The 5 spoke Rockets were the same construction as Cragar SS: Cast chrome center, chromed steel rim. And I thought I was the only one that liked 'em! Got to dig up that '70's photo of my '69 Chevelle with the Rockets and L60s to post........ Dave

Emailed them but they didn't answer my main question of "is there a connection?". They did say they didn't have Rocket Racing Wheels (no big surprise there). Dave
