Anybody ever seen or heard of these???
Here is something I ran across on eBay and wondered if anyone had ever seen any of these? They kinda look like the wheels that came on a late-70's to early-80's F&@d trucks.
I'm not interested in buying them, just curious if anyone else had ever seen any of these. The guy describes them as "RARE" and only came on the 68-72 C10's.......not sure how rare, but check out the center caps....they look vaguely familiar. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...tem=1824996508 ------------------ Keep On Truckin' Shane Athens, Alabama [This message has been edited by Shane (edited May 02, 2002).] |

Those look like mid 70's Jeep Cherokee 6-lug wheels that will fit our trucks but never came on a 67-72 truck.

JJR is probably right. My '69 stepside has these wheels (without caps)
I could have had a set of 4 for $60 at a local junkyard 'bout a year ago. They were on a Cherokee. If they are Jeep wheels, I would hardly rate them as rare. $150 is too high for these IMO ------------------ 63 Impala*66 Chevelle SS*69 Chevelle*69 C10 Stepside*71 Cheyenne 20*72 Chevelle Parts for sale: http://www.angelfire.com/trek/mr409/items4sale.html

They were an option, not sure what years. I saw a '72 "Feathers" Blazer dealer ad that had them on it. I don't remember what board member posted that ad.

Don't know that they were ever optioned for a c/10, they look like an optional wheel for 68-70 Blazers and / or Jimmys.
I have seen them on Blazers in old Publications, and one was the Feathers add.

They look like a wheel that came on Ford trucks around 77 to 79. The center caps look like they are off a early 80's model Chevy 4x4.

They're not Ford wheels, Ford never used a 6 lug pattern. They do look like the ones in the Feathers ad.

The backspacing looks kinda funny to be original on these trucks. They do look like the jeep ones to me. ------------------ '69 G.M.C. 350/350.

I have seen them on Jeep,i also had a old Jeep pull up next to me one time,in the parking lot that had chrome ralleys(identical to the truck ones)Man claimed to be original owner and he never changed anything,I think those are Jeep or aftermarket,with a chevy cap on them.
