Question Plain steel wheels

Hi all

Any ideas for finding a kit or just the wheels to replicate plain old steel wheels similar to the pic below? I want to do a Revell Thunderbolt with this style of wheel, and the ones that come with the kit are chrome mag-style wheels.

I'm pretty certain that i stumbled on something like them made by one of the aftermarket resin manufacturers., don't ask me who???

If you pick out all the resin part makers amongst the links on this page you might find them. http://www.rocketfin.com/partslinks.html

I think you may manage to find those at www.americansatco.com, otherwise I think they were available in some older nascar kits, if you could find a kit with them and just butcher it for parts you might win?

I bought that car and mine came with those plain steel wheels along with two diff. types of mags.

You get to pick from 3 types of rims #25-26, 27-28 or plain steel ones 63-64 Maybe you got a newer or older kit. If you want to order them off Revell-Monogram it's a 64 Ford Fairlane Thunderbolt Street Machine, Kit# 7679 and for part numbers, Front rims, #63 and rear rims #64. Descripsion is OUTER WHEEL.

Boy do I feel stupid! :o

Indeed, there they are included in the kit. For some reason I missed them when I was washing the kit yesterday! DUH!

Thanks, everyone, for the help, anyway!
