Default Re: cars with chrome reverse wheels

I usually ran chrome reverse wheels on my '50's vintage cars. Here's my old '57 that I eventually cruised in American Graffiti. They only wanted cars that were period correct - no mags or items that weren't correct for '62 and earlier.

You can see I was in-progress of some custom spray can action.... Charlie

August 1963. Rears were reversed Buick outers w/ Chevy centers. The valve stems were on the inside. Made for a very clean looking rim.

You were hardcore to combine white T-shirts with inside-mounted valve stems!

One thing I noticed in this thread are the vintage pics showing cars with one type of wheel in the front and another in the back...That is the way I remember it too...but you rarely see anyone set up a day two car like that today...even thought that is the way it really was....
