Joe after reading your post I drilled the old man for some more wheel info. He said what you said before I even mentioned it about the chrome reverse. I even posted some vintage pics of his 55 Chevy hot rod a while back sporting chrome reverse and then some more pics with Keystone Kustomflite (TT style) mags on it. He also told me for the fella's that lacked a fat pocket in the 60's (him included) they used to get a set on steel wheels & paint them gloss black and get a set of bright chrome lug nuts for them to stand out. Some would add baby moons which he said would pop off if you hit a pot hole in Chicago! He also told me that he used to cut a piece of card board and paint half of the the wheel white so you got a psycadelic look when the wheel was rolling!

Here is a vintage pic of the 55 Chevy from Oct. 1968 with the Chrome reverse.
