Late A-Bodies, Dart Sports and Dusters, also F-Body's Aspens and Volares.

Barry do you have any materials calling out the Rim Blow for A-body cars? I know they were available but don't see them on that option list.

I have an '81 crewcab with one. Ex-Alberta Transportation truck-plain as can be, even radio-delete. Why this particular truck came with one is beyond me.

I could have sworn I've seen them with tuff wheels. I've also seen ads for "NOS" 70-74 Cuda/Challenger tuff wheels.
