    Looks similar to wheels that were on 1970 Shelby 500 KR Mustangs.

    69-70 Shelby Mustang, pretty sure they were made by Motor Wheel. Love 'em.

    EDIT: Know what, they probably were made by Kelsey Hayes.

    Mr. G***er, did you hit the unusual wheel lottery or something? Coming up with some cool stuff.

    Shelby Mustang was my first thought, but couldn't find any to compare them to...the closest thing I found were the Magnum 500's...

    They're 15 x 7, 4.5" bolt circle, with stampings on the inside of the rim...I didn't find a "KH", but rather a "T-OPY", along with date codes...

    Phillips...I have a "thing" for wheels!...mostly American's & Halibrand's, but pretty much anything unusal that I find...I have about 300 wheels in my collection...

    Just google search "1969 Shelby mag wheels" the first thing that comes up is these wheels, that's what they are. They're not Magnum 500's, not even close, really.

    with Squaw on this - they sure look like 69-70 Shelby's....but they are making them I'm sure...one of my greattess finds at a pawn shop on Harry Hines way back in the day was a set of four - think I gave $100 for them....made a little on that sell......

    Squab...I just did that, and that's what I found...earlier, I had been looking for '66-'67-'68 wheels, and came up with the Magnum's, I just didn't make it to the '69-'70 era yet...
