    Are you sure those are 14" wheels?
    The only Jumbos I've ever seen were 15". That was a small wheel in the days of 19"18"21" wheels when they were introduced.

    These were on a 34 P/U. He said his dad built the truck and reversed the rear rims back in the day before they became so costly. No pictures of the whole truck.

    I have collected a set of 5 General Jumbo or otherwise identified as Cleve-Weld, Chevrolet 6 lug wheels. I had some new Goodyear collector series tires mounted on 4 of them and I'm fitting some caps to the wheels that have the Goodyear logo on them. I also have a set of General hub caps that fit the 9 spoke 16" wheels that were reproduced in the 1980's.
    I am going to sell all this stuff. Yes it's all for sale.

    How bout a three window coupe with Jumbos and woodlights...pretty deluxe. I asked an old timer why would you make 14" rims in the thirties, it always seemed like bigger was better till the 60's and 70's. He told me the hot set up was 14" rims with balloon air plane tires run at low pressure to give the smoothest ride.
