    I just bought a pair of these 3,5x16" wheels for my Rambler Gasser project. I hope that some day I can use these farming machine wheels... My garage is full of other AMC´s... :D

    Those appear to be Rockets.

    The Firestone logo you're seeing is stamped on the rim, right? They supplied many of the OEM and aftermarket manufacturers with the steel hoops that were then mated with that specific company's hub.

    Fenton Hustler mags on the front of my 55 Chevy. I sold the car and the new owner took them off and sold them back to me for $40 bucks. I was happy as hell to pay the $40 bucks and I still have them.

    These wheels are 77 Ford 15 in and Lincoln 14s. I drilled them for 5 1/2 for use on my recently completed track roadster as a change off. Now I need some 175-14 and 225-15 tires.

    These are a set of custom order Real Rodder Wheels, they have brushed lips and as cast centers. The fronts are 15x5 and the rears are 15x12. I had Eric Vaughn widen the rear wheels from 10 to 12 inches.

    The frame and wheel combination are for our stretched 1932 Chevrolet Roadster.

    Yep, Harder than hell to find now too. Took a guy I know almost 5 years to find a pair. Took me about 2 years to find mine. They pop up every now and then but usually bring quite a bit of money.

    Those have been on there forever. No way is he ever going to get close to $800 with that one that has a big chunk broken off and filled with epoxy.

    Here is one of the five Fenton hustlers I have, all 14x6. Been debating on getting rid of them.
