    There was a 14x6 set on Ebay a while back. Complete with caps and all. All I have is the guys email address (Willys parts @ aol.com). I dont remember what he wanted for them. Maybe 275 for the set? I know he had it up on Ebay twice and never sod them. Let us know how you make out.

    Motor Wheel Corp. made the wheels for the "aftermarket".
    Same manufacturer made the Buick chrome wheels for GM.

    happenned to be at a friend's shop yesterday and saw a Shovelle he was working on with those same wheels -- Motor City Spyders. My friend says he has a line on another set from one of his customers. Used to be on a Skylark. Promised me he will bring them in next week for me to check out. Kind of a long shot, but we'll see.

    Bill-For years I thought that the Pontiac 8 lug and Buick road wheel were both made by Kelsey-Hayes. Have I only been half right all this time??

    Hey WILD BILL!!!!

    Hey Wild Bill!!!! I noticed on the picture in the car up top that there is two different wheel sizes. The ones on the back look very recessed and look to be about 8-10" wide, while the fronts look like thy are about 7. I know way back, that the smaller wheels in the front and bigger in the back was the style. Do the ones that you have have the smaller wheels in the front? Also do you have a picture of your car with these wheels on? We would like to see!!! :Brow:

    Hey Guy!!

    Hey Guy, How old is this picture? Do you know where this car is now? Do you own it? These Vintage Buick pictures are so Cool!!! I wish someone would start a Thread on old racing buick pictures. Those old buicks get me motivated!! :Brow: :Brow: Randy.

    P.S. Can we get a spellchecker on tis forum. :Comp:
