65 Wheel Question
We have a "mystery" wheel I'm hoping to get some assistance on from you experts out there!
Came on a 64 we put KO's on many years ago---looks and appears to be a 63/64 drum brake steel wheel. Dated 12/64 on inside---has a 65 stamp on the outer star.
We are wondering if this is a 65 wheel from a car ordered with drum brakes??
Any help is appreciated!

You don't show the wheel size code stamped on the inside near the date code, nor the profile of the rim cross-section, both of which are necessary to ID the wheel. It's NOT a '65 Corvette wheel - the J-61 disc brake-delete 65's used the same wheel as the '65 disc-brake cars.
