I am going to get these rims painted, I believe they are original to my Aug 65 wagon

Is there an official “ford” paint color I can look for

Is powder coating to far off original

Okie, did u mention the second image, the spare, may not be period correct? The fellow I bought it from thought even the tire was from 65. I have not tried to look it up yet

Wimbledon white was the wheel color. Correct, the wheel slots should come to a peak in the center.

Thank you is the first one correct? Trying to visualize by looking at old pictures how these differ

As always. Thank you! Mine might be later? Much later? Has a k1 84 on front. Nothing on back.

Afraid to ask, how hard to find the correct ones?

Also. You be noted the mirror is wrong. Any chance the big ones he had in a box came on it
Same for that, can you still find the correct mirror?

Correct 66 wheels are pretty hard to find, they don't show up very often. The small round mirror in the last pic is correct, and should be several inches further back so that the wing window opens. I'm not sure what those big folding mirrors are off of.

You have a very sharp eye my friend. They do indeed interfere. The same bonehead who thought a Chrysler paint color must have moved the mirrors!
