    Try to find something closer. I can ship if you come up empty but I'm on the east coast.

    I have a single coded 68 steel wheel 14 x 6. Might be able to source additional wheels in Anthony TX. Roughly 900 miles E of you.
    You need to specify exactly what you’re looking for. Backspace? Clear 68 four piston disc brakes? Clear 69-72 Factory disc brakes? Aftermarket disc brakes? Nothing is cheap to ship anymore sales have fallen off a cliff in last several months.

    Dug these out. One in this pair may be the "correct" 68 rim I was speaking of. Do have about 12-14 14" x 6"s left, of course they are not all 68 Skylark. Can check backspaces and "nubs" on them, if you are seriously interested. Shipping - probably will be in the neighborhood of $125-$150 to ship four, two apiece, in two boxes. That's the way it is today, have little to no control over shipping costs. I do have a USHIPPER contact, but i really doubt he would do it for much less, with today's costs.

    Any resolution to this?? Seems there should be tons, still, lying around S. Calif. "old timey" tire/wheel and body shops. Just my opinion, maybe they've all been scrapped?? by now, with the ridiculous costs out there.
