They look straight to me too. Too bad they're Ford.

Re: Yenko/Atlas Wheels
I found this site by looking for Atlas wheels. I've got a set of 14's that I'm probably going to put on my '69. I sure wish they were 15's.

Re: Yenko/Atlas Wheels
This is the best photo ever found to date showing the Atlas foundry owner with Don Yenko and a new 1968 427 Camaro with Atlas wheels.. |

Re: Yenko/Atlas Wheels
Were the 68 Yenko Camaro wheels 14x6 or 15x6? I am guessing 14s since thats what came on the car.

Re: Yenko/Atlas Wheels
I was doing some research on Atlas wheels and besides old Yenko.net discussions, this popped up:
http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/t...please.533069/ Guy posting is from Canonsburg, PA and includes a picture of his Buick in the above thread He says: "OK I know this. Altas Foundry was in Atlasburg, PA, about 20 miles from Canonsburg, PA & Yenko Chevrolet. Atlas sold these wheels thru gas stations and garages in this area starting around May 1967. I know this because my Dad had a Sunoco station about a mile from Yenko Chevrolet, & my Dad sold Atlas wheels. The picture is of my 1967 Buick GS 400 with Atlas wheels, picture was taken in June of 1967. The wheels on my GS were dark almost black spokes with a brush finish on the rims, the center caps were a cast white metal chromed with an A on them." TOM |
