    What do you think of these? Not Halibrands but can be found at the local junkyard cheap.

    Those look like Dodge wheels or maybe early trailer wheels. No matter, they are good looking and will have folks guessing. I'd run 'em for sure.

    They look like late 80' early 90's lincoln or dodge wheels. They look real good on your rod.

    Those look like solid spare rims for late model Dodge.
     
  11. I`ve seen those in bone yards before. I think they`re `70`s T-bird wheels.
     
  12. Yeah, they work.

    T - So is that what they are - '70's T-Birds?
     
  14. Jr. is a smart cookie, so I would say yes, machined down 70s Lincoln..

    Looks great - I think it's better to have something unique that has some mystery to it. Make up your own story, or let them keep guessing.

    They came on Versaille Lincolns. The Granada looking Lincolns with the nice 9" rear axles with disc brakes. They are 4.5 bolt pattern wheels

    I have the 15 x 6" Chrlsler Cordoba versions on my car flipped around backwards. There are a 5 x 4 1/2 bolt pattern. The larger Lincolns have a 5" bolt pattern.

    That little Austin hot rod looks GREAT!


    I think they're 80's T-bird?
    Do I win?
    Pretty sure there's a wheel cover for those UGLY holes...hahahaha

    Whatever, they are cool, and have an obscure old Halibrand look.

    The Lincoln back sides are close to the Chryslers. Here is a pic of the original wheel before she was cut.

    You are the man Tman.

    Jeem...it's a cut down Model A 4 door.

    Wheels are 15x6 with 5 on 5 bolt pattern. The 5" bolt pattern sorta ****s....except when you run Buick drums :)

    Yes the centers have been smoothed and the front wheels narrowed to 5" wide.

    Those Chrysler wheels look very good. How the Hell do you mount them backwards? Have the been machined? Do you have a pic of what the front looks like?
