    I like it too! But, I like Cragar SS wheels on most anything. My 40 yr old son is pissed 'cause I want to put a set on my '39 sedan instead of 20" something ..or other....
    He can change 'em if he gets the car in my will!! LOL!

    13"ers were rather common on Pintos and Vegas.

    I have been looking for 2 of the 13 inch ones for years--If I am thinking correct they have a 5 bolt pattern for the Falcon's--correct me if I am wrong--I want to put them on this--really big and little-If anyone has two let me know-found some TRI-Spinners a few years ago that were as pitted as my wheels---In the 60"s my brother was buying them new and using red striped tires on his 442

    The 13s i have are 4 lug. I wish i could find a center cap that would fit those, as i am missing one. I have searched high and low and no luck.

    Just keep searchin'! Persistance pays off!
    However, even though they were rather common on Pintos and Vegas, Pintos and Vegas are no longer common.:(

    Had gold center Cragars back in the 70's on my car. Thought they looked really good then, but in time I grew to dislike them.

  15. I bought a new set almost 3 years ago and they already have a couple of rust pits starting. I'm not real happy about that!
