Hi Listers,
I can't believe I finally got my car to the paint shop. It is a great
way to start the new year.
I contacted the Shelby factory in Las Vegas and Gary tells me that
Carroll did in fact commission a company or two to produce wheels with his
insignia and name. Most likely my wheels are a set of one of the wheels
produced under the Shelby name but they could not help me so far as who the
manufacturers were or whether they are painted or anodized. He did say that
the C.S.I. on the back probably stood for Carroll Shelby Industries. So back
to square one. Looks like I will keep them the original gold color. I think
the body color would be too dark causing the center to dissappear.
Armond, thanks for the suggestion of using photoshop to experiment with
the wheel color.

Finally in for paint!
