    so me and my dad went to a mans house to pick up some 34' ford hood sides and i found these in a box.
    he sold the set of 4 to me for $100
    are these real halibrand? are they old? any info on them?
    i figured for $100 they look cool.
    thanks for any help

    The wing nuts appear to be Hali. but the rest looks to be dress up parts to make a standard 5 lug mag look like a pin drive Knockoff wheel. Still not a bad deal, wing nuts that haven't been hammered to death are probably worth 25 bucks ea.

    Halibrand from probably the 80's. As you can tell they are for looks only.

    If they're forged aluminum they are roughly from the 1960s because they developed those when testing the Shrike race car. I haven't seen any other iterations of Halibrand do legit knock-offs. The adapters look to be for display, though. I'd give you what you paid in a heart beat for just the wing nuts.
