Greetings all!
Just “inked” the deal to buy a ‘64 Barracuda project car. The car will need to be towed about 200 miles home on a 2 wheel “car dolly” type trailer (driveshaft removed). Of course, dummy me didn’t think about pulling the 2 rear wheels with perfectly dry rotted tires before leaving the car yesterday after closing the deal, so rather than driving another 400 miles round trip to retrieve them, I hoping I can slap a couple decent (maybe even trailer rated) tires on some cheap “steelies” for the upcoming tow home. So, what I need to find out is what are my best common cheap, junkyard find steel wheel alternatives to replace those little 13” Valiant wheels on, hopefully, the cheap and easy? I understand the “5 on 4” bolt pattern are hard to swap? Again, the car won’t be “living with” these wheels and won’t be driven with them on the back. Just something to get it the approx 200 mile tow home without (hopefully) any safety issue?
Thanks, in advance, for your best ”low buck” suggestions!
