Yeah i hear you on some things you said about him it has the 283 with two 2s on it. It has some crome deep dish wire wheels one it. Everything thing else looks like its there. Im going threw everything before i bring it out fuel tank is out right now im going threw the brake and everything else just to make the car safe to take to shows. So you do have the cones so you have the hole rims to go with it or just the cones ? And do you want to get rid of them ? You can Private message me on Face book anytime thanks again for your time.

The wheels were made for his race car, a "super modified" that he raced at the time in San Jose. He had plenty of tires that would fit the wide rims, and no money to buy new ones. So, the obvious choice was to use what he had. They were chromed, and the center cones made (Mrs. Wilhelm was tasked with putting them together) and on went the slicks. Turns out it was very well accepted. Then after the redo, they bought Goodyear bluestreaks.
