Bryce -
Temporary fix - before the chunk fell out of my 73 and 76 wheels
completely, I wrapped them with steering wheel covers. ' Didn't care for
the look or feel, and with time the chunks fell out anway. Now both cars
sport the chrome/wood wheels sold by Mo$$. These wheels bolt on directly -
no special hub required. The spoke style looks original, the wood is
beautiful, and the rim is thick, meaty, and comfortable. Not cheap - I
bought one of these on Mo$$ "50 years - 50% off" sale last August - and I
waited nearly six months for it. But these are well worth the price and
the wait. I know we had a Mo$$ bashing thread not too long ago, but I have
to admit these wheels are really nice! (Of course the horn buttons that
come with them are another story...)
No I have no interest in this. ' Just love the wheels.
