    My smart phone changed my words when I sent it. The phone added the Capitol S. I am a good speller. English was one of my better subjects. I have come to ignore these obvious spelling mistakes that happen all of the time to text. I wasn't trying to be a smart ass or a know it all and correct you. I just knew the answer to what seemed like you were unsure of as I have two sets of these wheels and know what they are called. I was just trying to get the correct name out there for others wanting to know.

    Roger that, I am of the same mind.
    I should have dug up my old Halibrand brochures first.

    Your assignment reminds me of an old episode of the series : Mission Impossible!

    @DDDenny and @Kan Kustom thank you both. But now you probably can see why I've been confused on the name, which seems like is "Champ".

    Saw this T-bird in Hot Rod magazine while I was at the barber shop. Neat look and neat car. The wheels certainly take it there.

    I might have a couple of the oldest -- maybe Halibrand 18" 1948 Indy car, I don't know. It looks like they fit a number of other cars before I got them . . .

    I had a problem about 30 miles north of Vegas. Had two pieces missing, found them, took a while to find someone to weld them back in.

    I like the American torque thrust and all their variants. I pulled these off a 55 Vette 20 plus years ago where they had lived since 1965. img_1_1667361835777.jpg IMG_20220706_202015.jpg
