does anyone have an idea what a set of rally rims and tires also a clean set of driver quality wire hub caps 68-74 might be worth.

What size Rally's are they?
Are they a matched set code wise?
What type of condition?
Are we talking P02'S....??????
Do they come with trim rings and caps? If, so repo? orig? cond?
What brand and size tires?

Photo's would help a great deal here.

Stay in tune...

There were no 'factoy-available' "wire wheel covers" in the late 60's. There were the P02's which have radial fins going out from the center hub....but they had no "wire". Original P02's, in good condition, have good value; but if I had some, I'd keep them.

if you look up wheel covers for a 68-74 these appear they have an emblom with flags in center and look like a wire wheel. I will look at dates tomorrow are they in the same place as the 63 by the stem and on rear thanks.

The reason that i ask is i bought a 63 project and it had the hub caps inside the car and rally rims on the car. I know they are not the correct ones thanks for any help.
