If those are the wheels I'm thinking of, they are way off.
The woodgrain looks overexagerrated but it's the spokes that blow it away. Basically bright shiny chrome, not the dull satin finish that originals had.
I appreciate the input, but have you seen them in person or just the pictures. I also find the pictures of the spokes too shiny,
Sometimes the camera can play tricks on images and finishes
Saw it in person, someone had one at a show recently. If I remember correctly, it was at the WPC Winter Swap meet this past January. The spokes were way way way too bright and the woodgrain very pronounced. It looked almost 'cartoonish' to me.
I'll save my $435 to have one of my originals restored.
