Hi

Was digging about in dads shed and came across these old steel rims there 7inches wide and are factory rims (not welded) i took the old 30 year old slicks off and sanded off all the rust.. and gave it a quick lick of silver paint.. thinking of putting them on my mk1 cortina.. but id like to put some chrome centre caps on.. i tried standard cortina chrome centres but there to small! so im not sure what centre would fit over them?

Does anyone know what model these would be off??

So that's your green one that parked up on the highway near the Holden dealer at Bomaderry? Do you still work up that way, or did you move with the dealer down to south Nowra? Good looking car, either way.

And sorry, I dunno what the wheels are off [:I]
