I have a set of those laying "over there". I think they are about an 8" or so wide rim, I'd have to check. the edges are well used, but I like the ol chrome spokes and am not going to use the mags any more. BTW< i'm driving to California in August.

Well if I haven't found a set by August I will let you know.

Again thanks for everyones help.

If anyone else has a set or knows of a good place to find them, feel free to let me know.

there was a guy on this board, I forget his name,, I bought a bunch of stufff from him he had a set that came on his Stroupe(SP) he lives in Federal Way. God I remember how to get to his house, But don't have his phone number.
His mom wanted to take it all to the dump, and he was offering the wheels for $120, I love the looks of them , and was going to buy them but I have broken aluminum wheels before and prefer steel.

HEY KID WITH THE STROUPE IN FEDERAL WAY BY LAKOTA JUNIOR HIGH! WHERE ARE YOU ?

If you wanna keep them for your 74, I would understand.
No dude -- they're too wide since I'm not cut -- I'd like to find some 7 inch wides, same style -- they're YOURS amigo!! I can't wait to see that beast on the road!! and these wheels will look way cool on it.

I think that I have them Don

I had a set of progressive wheels on my 68 when I found it. Took them off as I could not find a 5th one and replaced them. Have them in the garage. Send me an e-mail and I will forward you the photos of them, I think they are what your looking for.

Something about those Mickey Thompson Challenger that fit a bronco. I called summit a couple years ago to get a set. They had two in stock and where going to get the other two about two weeks later they called and said Mickey Thompson discontinued them. Then would not pay for shipping the other two back because it was there problem that Mickey Thompson stoped making them.
