Re: Uber Cool's 1963 C10 LWB Fleetside in England
That does appear to be an original wheel, with the hub cap clips and riveted center section. I've never seen one exactly like it though. It appears to be a split ring wheel (two pieces) but I don't see any gaps in the lock ring. Many tires shops here in the US won't touch those any more. They fell out of favor back in the 70's when a national TV show focused on how many bent or damaged examples came apart on big rigs, with explosive and frequently fatal results.
