That GTO is exactly what I'm talking about. You probably ran it with black rallys and no caps. I did the black steelies and thin whitewalls on the Nova for a while until I changed to the chrome OE wheels (see my recent post in car profiles)

Yes - especially since they were &quot;free&quot;.

Dad had a friend that worked for the Grand Trunk Railroad. When they first came out Dad mentioned to Bernard that he really liked the look of these &quot;rally wheels&quot;. Within a few days Bernard was coming up the driveway with two wheels under each arm. No questions were asked.

I still have them, on a shelf in the back garage (two of the wheels are a riveted construction). They are still black.
