While hunting for parts for my '63, I ran across these sitting in the back of a garage, unwanted. I was told that they are original wheels from a '67. I don't know enough about them to form an opinion, so maybe someone here can identify them.

All 4 wheels are cast, and carry the name Western Wheel Corp., K-H, have a cast in number "306067", and cast in "15x6". See pictures below.

So, are they original? As of now, I've locate 2 good center caps, and one damaged center cap. The owner told me there is one more center cap and it's good, and I'll get it as soon as he finds it in his pile of junk. Whether they are original or not, any idea what they might be worth?

Thanks, Steve

I think the new wheels are around 2000. so I would think these are worth 100ea. if they are not damaged.

My thoughts, around $1000 give or take a couple hundred.

They are repro Western Wheel bolt on for a 1967 . Just as good a quality as originals but 1/3 the cost. One day the wheel factory was making original wheels and the next day they made the same quality wheel but with Western Wheel.

I heard the current offshore repops were actually quite close ? Not so ?

the newer versions sold by AF and CA are better compared to the older repros. but before CA retooled their wheels they had a off shore manufacture make them. not sure where the new ones are made
