Re: Halibrand
Those wheels are being discontinued, from what I hear.
Better order fast if you want a set.

I ordered a set last week.
Was looking for some pics on one and the mud truck was my inspiration after wheel vintiques went out of their minds for 15in wheels

I heard that they aren't being discontinued as much as they are trying to deplete the current stock in the CA warehouse (Brother's) in order to complete the final move to KY (Holley).

Nutshell: It's cheaper for Holley to mark them down and sell them vs load up all the current Brother's stock and move it to Holley warehouses in KY.

Except the 1st is shipping from KY
I'm getting concerned about the other 3 now. No tracking provided yet. Hope this doesn't turn into another brother's/holley story.

I was reading the email wrong. Said one of four, which turned out to be one of four tracking numbers.

Hope to get them on Saturday
These Americans on it since 2005 be a big change

Re: Halibrand
Since the original plan was rallies, now I have a decent set of caps and these wheels have fairly bland center and spinners isn't me.
Set this on there. And damn if I'm not about to drill into these halibrands

Those wheels look good. Let's see a full front shot with the center cap sitting on it. I'm liking the idea of using the original cap

Re: Halibrand
I'm gonna have to do the oe caps.
Dad had centerlines with them on his 78 step that my brother has yet.

And they're just on with gravity I didn't think about a photo of the whole truck... but I did get one of the rear.
