I think I have this figured out. I just made a round of calls and found a guy with a machine shop in his back yard. He's going to open up the center of the wheels I bought for $30 for two wheels. Great deal and they should fit fine after that - of course I still have to tub the rear. The real deal here may be finding the friendly machinist.

Re: Scott's '51 Build
haha may? $15 a wheel is hardly a blip. I would take him a 30pack as a tip

Re: Scott's '51 Build
Dropped the wheels off to get the centers machined out. However, in spite of these being 15" wheels, they do not clear the Wilwood brake calipers or the caliper brackets. Those are just mocked up right now so I'm pulling them off to get the wheels on. What a pain.
