Thanks Rev, but those are not D-spokes. D-spoke wheels are curved on the backside of the spokes to clear the disc brake caliper. Thanks for the heads up, I appreciate your willingness to help.

Sorry Jack, but I'm still not seeing them. When I click on one it takes me to your Photobucket album but it says the photo has been deleted. I see pics of your beautiful car....................before and after I guess. Not sure what's going on. Are these the wheels that were on the front of your 66 in the pics before restoration?

Can anyone else see the pics in Jack's post above?

Thanks,
Rex
