FORTUNATELY IT SEEMS, the ones shown in my article were made 50 years ago, were not designed for radials, and even though were last produced 49 years ago, seem that they will be easier found than the ones cited above! These are the same style rim that was used on WWII Dodge and other trucks, albeit somewhat larger.
