This American Racing wheel ad was also in the July '61 Hot Rod. Note the "Torq-Thrust" name is in use as early as 1961.

The earliest American ad I found in my Hot Rod collection was in the August, 1960 issue:

I don't collect stuff as far back as 61, but here are a few cool things i was able to dig up from 66-70. Not sure if it helps anyone out in putting anything in chronological order or not, but what the heck...
