The front ones on that car are 15x6's and I had the rear ones made in to 15x14's when I started that car about 18 years ago.
there was a guy in Rochester NY that did wheels for me and I had a bunch of spyder wheels so I had them made from a pr of 14x6's that he used the centers from.

heres a picture of that car from way back than

very cool !

Willys did make open cars , but they were mainly for export . Nice choice of the Spyders too , something different !

when I moved out here to CA I brought that car body with me and started building it for a friend, I built a chassis and did the engine,trans,rear end,mustang front end and 9"rear end with ladder bars. I didn't paint it or do the top, when It left my house it was drivable but not painted, Jack did a nice job finishing the car up. my brother sent me these pics of the car done Ron...
