How do U I.D. original rims...
The rims that came on my car are the aluminum slotted ones...i just had the rubber peeled off them to use on my T-Bird..are there any marking anywhere to tell if they are from the factory ?

No 69's came with aluminum wheels. I think they started in the late 70's although there were a few 73's with factory aluminum wheels that got through after a defect coased the wheels to be recalled.

The steel ralleys can be date coded by a code stamped into the rim near the valve stem hole. The correct code for my 73 is AZ. All five of my rims are stamped AZ.
