GT6boy Posted November 1, 2007 Share Posted November 1, 2007 They look fab. Only slightly less so, when I realised their origin, but still look good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpitVX Posted November 1, 2007 Author Share Posted November 1, 2007 Sorry , seem to be making a habit of this . ' Three strikes and your out ' rules here ? Looked Halibrandesque to me . They certainly do look good here but agree a bit of a let down in origin ---- Ford / GT40= worthy ( poss Halibrand ? ) , Ford / Capri = bit run of the mill . I guess Capri's must have been influenced by American Ford . Shows how a wheel type can look quite different on another style of vehicle . Must say , hard to keep up with you ' been here before boys ' .Does this make up for it , even if it is a repeat ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zardoz Posted November 2, 2007 Share Posted November 2, 2007 I don't get it! Those wheels look great on the car regardless of origin - lighten up. Wish I had them on my car! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpitVX Posted November 2, 2007 Author Share Posted November 2, 2007 ' Halibrandesque ' , I said John . And Halibrands came in many forms . Those are very gorgeous as many of them are , but that does n't look like a Triumph ! Thanks for the pic , 60's , 70's was the ultimate Auto period for sure !Does this help 99176 ? ;( Historic Triumph show shot Mr Administrator ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GT6Steve Posted November 2, 2007 Share Posted November 2, 2007 I don't suppose it's coincidence that the copper is standing behind the Gulf Spitty, waiting for the driver, pehaps?Or more likely looking for the yellow Spitty ;D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
