Amazing to find these new in the box, and a nice reference for how they actually looked when new. I would have guessed the spokes were finished in the dull gold color, but these look like more of an as-cast finish.

But man, I've paid less for many of my cars....

Beautiful. Would the center caps have been plastic (as they appear in the photo) back in '68?

----There's the irritating part. I mean, we all know what he paid for them. Not that that matters,,,I guess......Bill S

It's a shame that American Racing doesn't just produce the original wheels, whether it be D-spokes like these or the Torq-Thrust with the peaked spokes. The newer versions just aren't the same.
