I thought '63's didn't have knockoffs?








Just kidding, they look great and while I'm not a big fan of w/w tires they actually look good with those wheels and the white paint.

She looks awesome. Knock offs are magic on a midyear.

That is a bummer 63's didn't come with them, but I enjoy hearing the murmurs of everything that's incorrect. .

I had never bought a set of white walls or run hubcaps till I got this car. I'll switch back to the hubcaps every once in a while.

They sure are. When I saw Rex's ad for them, I jumped on em. Been lusting after everyone else's long enough.

Thanks, but these are bolt-ons. I'm too old to whack.

Your never too old but it's a good thing you bought the bolt-ons for safety reasons... just like wearing an old goat skin back in the day, better to be safe than sorry.

Simply gorgeous! Changes the entire character of the car.

My car had rally wheels, originally. The previous owner swapped them out for bolt-ons and whitewalls and I'm happy he did.
