pics of 47-55 1st with steelies-anyone

i have a 50 model 5 window that my dad and i got when i was 8 and finished when i was 11, i'm 31 now. when we did it we put steel 15's with trim rings and original caps, but he changed to some aluminum wheels later and the first set disappeared. i'm now wanting to put the steelies back on, but would like to see different pics and different styles. if you have any, show me what you got and thanks in advance. by the way, they are still 6 hole.

these trucks don't need vacuum gauges cause they don't suck!

A friend in Germany recently completed his 52 project. Here is a link to his picture albums. He is using chrome steelies which look great. I will be using chevy rally wheels on my 54 but they are not mounted on the truck yet.

If you have a good side picture of the truck post it on the photo shop forum with your requests. They will come up with some good combos.

here's a pic of my 59 with porta-whites and rallys.
