Set of 4 factory wheels for drum brake car (known straight) - any style
Set of 4 aftermarket wheels (known straight)

Please let me know if you have any for sale or kow where I can find some ... I am trying to solve an annoying vibration.

Call John Dorcey. His info can be found in the Parts Sources section under body and trim.

I have 4 chrome wheels that are from a drum brake Toronado. If you are interested I would sell them for $100 plus shipping.

Here are 3 of 6 photos. It is about 0 degrees here and everything in the shop is frozen. I used some snow to take the dust off. I found a 5th wheel while digging them out. They are all in good shape. I will post the other 3 after this post.

Do you think they can be cleaned up to use

I think if you just glass cleaner they would look great. They would be even better with a little polish. If you were to polish the chrome, put some nice center caps and rings on them and they would look very nice. One wheel has a couple of marks where the center cap was put on and off over the years. I converted my '66 to 4 wheel disk and my '67 has factory disks, so I have no use for them. Other wise I would have them on the '66.
