I think it went for under $120.00. I was surprised it went that cheap, being so rare and in such good condition. I checked this morning and see they also recently sold a white Grant wheel for $220, and a white Superior wheel for $200. I guess it pays to check frequently.

For search terms I include Covico, Superior, Grant, gasser, vintage, hot rod, in various combinations. Most of the time the person selling the wheel doesn't know what it is, so you need to take a wide sweep, and Covico wheels do not have brand markings. I think the one in my truck was listed as "nice hot rod wheel".

Also beware when the seller doesn't show good pictures, and says "some pits should polish right out". If the chrome is gone enough to rust the steel they won't polish right out, or the seller would have already done it.

The only version most people list accurately in the title is the "Milner" wheel. It's distinctive having odd hole sizing, instead of each spoke having increasingly larger holes starting at the hub, the middle hole is very small, and the spokes are not evenly spaced around the rim. It can be seen in the gas station scene of American Grafitti.
