    This photo shows what appears to be the Halibrand version R wheels 7"

    May be that when he is running this car at track events the original wheels are ..at home ..safe and secure..not wanting to take a chance on damaging a hard to find expensive magnesium original.. I have been looking for a pair of originals to complete my set that was damaged 30 years ago... have not found the exact wheels yet.. close but thats not what I am looking for. I have a spare set of aluminum 15 7 trans am wheels that I use if I show my car.
