Well, to me they look like Fenton Gyros NOT Halibrands, & all these guys that are out there snapping them up for "Gasser" builds (dont even get me started on this so called "gasser" bs, most of these guys wouldnt know a gasser if it ran them over) and the irony is, There are aluminum "peanut hole" halibrand re-pops out there that look WAY more like halis than the Fentons do. When I see Fentons I think early '70s SSer or Pro Stock, NOT mid-sixties gasser! Hell, the Fentons werent even AVAILABLE till '69!!
Well right, that's sort of what I was saying. You're absolutely correct - Fenton Gyro is definitely an early Pro Stock wheel. Never said Fentons look like the Halibrands, just closer in style than an Ansen slot because of the smaller windows. Douglas Glad put a set of those alumium Halibrands on the CC Rambler. Looks OK, not right for the car. Would have been better off with a set of Cragars. No one with a Rambler would have had Halibrand small kidneys back in the late '60s.
Thats why I was looking for a pic of the skinny TQ SLT's I want to see what they look like. As far as that goes, with American re-poping the ansens, why dont THEY re-pop the 15x4 ansens? They would probably seel more rears if they had a matching front runner in the catalog.
The TQ rims look like Ansens with the larger windows. To me, the Ansen slots are too fat. They look more like large window Halibrands.
As far as that goes, why in the HELL doesnt Cragar do a re-pop of the 15x4 keystone Klassic, same deal, they would sell more of the rears if they did.
I think they do. I know they were available for a while anyway, not too sure about now though and not up on what sizes are available.
DAMN those look GOOD Ramcharger! I NEED a pair for my duster! What are yours going on?
Stole that pic off a racing junk ad, but I got the same thing. I'll probably run a similar tire, either a BFG Silvertown or a Coker Pro Trac for a vintage look. They're going on my '71 Dart.
