Vintage or dirty new ones?

For that price I'd snatch them up regardless?

Vintage, because they have the steel shell. The new ones are one-piece aluminum castings.

I don't like them, good price or not - just don't like 'em!

Love those wheels. Look great on the front of a FX type car. The new one's are RADIR wheels

I like them on traditional street rods and early muscle cars like Verne's..but IMO they don't look good and just don't fit on any muscle car after approx 1966..
They are a early to mid 1960's look.

I think they are a 'big car' wheel in that they seem to look better on the bigger muscle cars.

They definitely have an &quot;older&quot; look to them, but just for the record, those M/Ts hit the market in '65. My M/T catalog shows them on a '65 Vette and I don't think they look good on it at all. A lot depends on the car.

A buddy of mine several year back. We thought they looked pretty good then. Pic doesn't show it well, but it is also equipped with a factory tunnel ram intake!

I also knew him through Ronnie Evans and watched him race many times. Those wheels always look good on Pontiacs.
