this looks cool, whats the story behind the pattern?

 

Rears are 15x10 AREs original magnesium with M/T 10.00x15 pie crusts.
Fronts are 15x6 International Dragmasters with NOS ET oval caps. One of them has the name cast in the back and the other does not. Identical in every other way though.
Bought all 4 from H.A.M.B.ers.
The wheels can make or break a car. It was 1st on my list to make period correct on the car. Now to nit pick the rest of the ''wrongs''!

 

No, they will be LESS rare. But go for it anyway. I'm interested in the history...

 

These wheels are 16x5, 5 on 5 1/2 bolt pattern 1941 ONLY Mercury. They are pretty rare because of the limited production before World War II war time production. Inside the wheel they are stamped KH 16x5 and have a '41 date code. Not the flashiest wheels but not easy to find

I have two of these wheels which are very simular to your three.
If you manage to find a stash of these give me a mail I need two more.

 

my plan on mine was using 15" version of this package....sweet piece ....post up pics when you get farther along.

 

Here is the Pattern

 

Looks pretty "right" to me.
To nit pick:
Alternator
disk brakes
electric fag
oops "fan"
tunnel ram
radials
If you don't have those you pass.

 

This is the kind of Stack of wheels and Tires that get me going!

View attachment 2046763 View attachment 2046763 Don,t see a lot of these anymore. 14 inch General Jumbo wheel on wide 5s.
Ran these on my 39 in High School.

 

anyone know if these are the correct centers for hawks?

 

Wow cool.... what do these come from?

 

How about these.......... talk about rare! Webbed 15x13" magnesium......No these are not mine but a friend that is a ET & American wheel connoisseur

 

:drool:--man, those are sweet!

 

They were offered by ford as an option for high clearance applications...for areas with lots of snow,etc. The wheels came with a frame spacer that was riveted into the spring crossmember to further raise the ford even higher. This is what I was told anyways.

 

Here is a 16" and 18" for comparison, and a pic of the back side.

 

31 Dodge DH6 wheels.

 

Any idea when those wide Americans were made? Never seen those before.

 

Ivos 4-engine fronts

 

Anyone ever seen MARK II wheels? These are 14X6. The castings look like sand castings with some polishing.

 

I think those were made by Crestline.

 

Yes they are Crestlines kind of. They are the crestlines mold but with "Crestline Walnut creek California" removed from the mold because dick had moved his operation to Benica 15 mi north of walnut creek and changed the companys name to "E-T"

 

Mine.

 

Doodle, are those magnesium Halibrands, newer alum Halibrands, or new Real Rodder's wheels? They look like 15" size.
