It has the numbers 23 on one side of the velve stem hole and 00 on the other side. http://www.supermotors.net/getfile/657334/fullsize/dscf6219.jpg http://www.supermotors.net/getfile/657340/fullsize/dscf6220.jpg http://www.supermotors.net/getfile/657341/fullsize/dscf6221.jpg It came off of an old homebuilt trailer my father gave to me and I'm wondering if it's something worth saving or not. I think I have a pair, haven't pulled the other one out to take a looksee. This one had an old, weather cracked, bias ply tire on it that's probably older than me, the other one still is wearing it's old tire. Larry

Anonymous OP Unregistered A	Well, is there some sort of identifier that designates a Mopar wheel? I've ruled out Ford as there is no FoMoCo stamp on it. I think maybe AMC had a 5 on 4.5" pattern? Larry

Okay, well then it looks like it's headed for my electrolytic rust removal tank. The bead areas look fine, but the center has a lot of flaking rust. I'm leery of using a cup brush on my 4" angle grinder to removel the rust and I'm too lazy to use a wire brush by hand. I guess I ought to try and measure the circle where the dog dish attaches too as well. Last edited by Larry Hampton; 07/30/08 10:24 AM.
