Official Metal Flake Steering Wheel Pic and ID Thread...

What I heard from a Moon vendor was that they were being discontinued and no longer being produced. I also heard Speedway was going to start selling them. So they are for sure going to be harder to get from Moon, maybe Speedway will pick up their slack.

 

nice wheels

 

found the websites for each
MOON:http://www.mooneyesusa.com/california-metal-flake-steering-wheels-p-2136.html
Speedway: http://www.speedwaymotors.com/Metalflake-Steering-Wheels,25561.html
the speedway ones are about ten dollars less

 

Thanks Muttley, I hadn't thought of a Corvair. Appreciate the tip.

 

Found this at a flea market.........

HELLS BELLS, no wonder I can't find any swap meet metalflake wheels. I tried ordering a green from speedway. At first they were back ordered, then nothing, no word on a new shipment. This was 4-5 months ago.

 

I'm guessing since it says "SOLD OUT" on their web site they won't be getting anymore.

 

That's so cool. I just joined.

 

Damn, that is a nice collection. But I've got you beat on the BTT 50's posters.

 

I know there's more out there. I still want to see an old Grant in that turquoise color!

 

STOP IT! GOD-DAMIT! JUST STOP! I can't take any more!

 

I already posted a pic of one. Post #45 in this thread.

 

Another from that collector in Japan.........

 

what size u want?

 

you willing to sell this one?

 

there sold out on them

 

I dont really want to part with it. It came all the way from Italy in a trade with another HAMBer.

 

Does this count? Since sold, but I flaked it myself with a custom mix of blue and purple base and blue flake.

 

Man, How come the guy in Japan has all the cool ones? I guess my thoughts of finding one have got slimmer. I need red, olive, blue, and gold. Hmmm.....I do know a guy....

 

I just scored a red Superior 500 on eBay a day ago. Can't wait for it to get here!

 

i've got a crager med met green excellent shape...what do these sell 4$$$

 

Did anyone make a flaked wheel bigger than 15"? I've been looking for a flaked wheel for my F100 thats around 17". The stock wheel is 19" and with no power steering you need the extra inches

 

Not much. I'll do you a favor and give you $20. Just to get it out of your way.

 

Looks like these guys have some 12.5 red ones still in stock....I'm looking for a 15 incher unfortunately.

I got the green one at a yard sale for $3 . The flake is very heavy. Difficult to catch the bright color with the camera.





Gold one in my Willys project.
