Re: Orphan Wheel

Mid-'50s-mid-'60s Ford wheel is what I think it is. Look for the size stamped in the rim. It may have other markings as well as size

Re: Orphan Wheel

I'm surely no exert on these wheels, but I think the original wheels had 'clips/retainers' for the hubcaps? I have one original off my C20 and it has them (sorry no pics, ..but I'll grab one if someone doesn't beat me to it

Re: Orphan Wheel

Ford went to inner nubs as seen in the picture. Their vents slots were larger and they triangle bumps between each lug hole is characteristic of Fords
