    They're repops. Similar to 67-8s the valve stem. The hollows in the outer arms don't reach the inner ring, the stampings you see, originals have raised bosses where the lug nuts go... Jim... JIM ELSMORE! post all those pics I made of the repop '66 wheels!

    Thanks, Tom,

    There are several pics on Jim's website, but no text to say exactly
    what we're looking at and which wheel is which.
