    In an earlier post I was asking for pictures of <table cl***="tborder" align="center" border="0" cellpadding="6" cellspacing="1" width="100%"><tbody><tr><td cl***="alt1"><nobr>Chrome wheels</nobr> for my '63 Biscayne. I will still keep the old rims/bias tires as shown, but want to switch to some radials for longer drives, as well as a different look...
    I since have changed my mind and bought two sets of slightly different Torq Thrust type 14" wheels.
    I am curious what manufacture made them...(not that is matters)
    The first pair will be on the back, as they have a nice offset...but the only marking I can find on them is "MARK ll"
    They all have been sitting in a barn for years, so after about two hours of scrubbing, I kinda like the looks of the offset ones as they are...probably will run them that way, as my Biscayne is a Plane Jane ride.
    The second set was worse, and after scrubbing it too, I painted the inside a medium grey for now..may change later..
    The second pair will go on the front and have ANSEN stamped on the back of them
    They both are 14"x6".
    So what have I got ??
    Thanks in advance...
    Cheers,
    Bob

    The Mark II's are Crestline wheels and the Ansen's were made by Ansen just as the Sprint slot mags. If you take detailed shots of them someone might identify the exact version of Ansen clones you have.
