Re: Wheel trim rings

     Many had trim rings...repros of which are available from the usual LBC 
     suppliers for $20.00 +...or, you can buy a reasonable representation 
     (in stainless) of the same from Pep Boys or other retail car places 
     for $9.98 and a plastic (not so good) imitation for $4.98.  
     
     I did the $9.98 stainless, and few can tell the difference from the 
     "real" butter.

Hello all-
I have a '75 Spitfire 1500, and was wondering if these cars came with 
chrome trim rings. My wheels are in good shape exept for scratches that 
are rusting around the outer ring. This leads me to believe the car may 
have had trim rings on it at one point in time. I also saw said trim 
rings in the Moss catalog, listed for the 1500.
I am trying to keep the car as original as possible. 
Any feedback?
