Found the correct mounting bolts for A12 promo discs.

thanks i do agree that they dont look so good like the A12 roadrunner, my wife says they look gay. she says "ride with the dodge boys" is that a line from brokeback mountain. .

LMAO!! She is right!! I think the car is awesome and the discs would look great parked at a show, but for "cruising" no pun intended I would leave them off.

anyway i think they are cool for a car show. ill switch around from discs to no discs.
right now i'll crerish the moment and keep them on for a while. but how about finding original hardware for the discs very cool.

I would have to agree with your wife(LOL)

Chris,

I don't care much for the Dodge Boy discs. I wasn't sure I liked my Roadrunner discs much on my K-2. I thought they looked great on Ed Cook's X-9.

But....the first time my car debuted as a show with them on and I pulled in it was like an E.F. Hutton commercial. Everyone stopped what they were doing and started staring and pointing. The non-spinning discs do freak people out a bit.

Are you bringing both A12's to Carlisle?

---

as of now both cars are coming as long as i can kep them both together. i really dont want them spread out.
looking forward to all having a blast with some good food and some beverges. sound be a some good fun.

Chris: Nice touch of period correct icing on the cake. I'd race with them on if they wouldn't harm anything (wheel paint, come off, etc.), just to freak people out!

---

John, i had to try it out. its cool and all but i think its going to get old fast or maybe grow on me. not sure yet. but its different.
john, they wont come off, they are attached to the wheel spindles with a special slotted nut.
the only thing im not too thrilled about is there is no cotter pin in the spindle now.
wasnt sure if you would like it or not.

Chris: As others have said too, it depends on what you're doing with the car. If you're taking it to a serious show, I'd put them on so people have an idea how the car was actually delivered - like with the window sticker you've attached. But if you're gonna cruise around or race...I'd leave them off. Kinda cool, as I've never seen the Dodge covers in person. That would be a treat for folks, I guess. John

Even though you said it you probably know that cars were not delivered with wheel discs on. It was a promotional item advertised to dealers to buy and then dealers could sell them along with patches, dolls, tie pins, and other such promotional items. I don't know about anyone else, but I had a new Runner in 69 and never saw a Dodge or a Plymouth with wheel discs on in person or in a magazine before someone displayed them at the Mopar Nats on a black A12 in 1989. They are just a dress up item that really befit an A12 because A12's did not come with hubcaps of any kind. The wheel discs would look kind of weird on a car with dog dishes, full hubcaps or mag wheels on the rear!

my 69-1/2 survivor roadrunner came with them when the car was prepped new at crabtree motors in new rochelle,ny.
the original grease caps were put in the trunk and the car was prepped and the promo discs were on the car when the original owner picked up the car. i personally saw my A12 roadrunner race one time in late 69 on the hutchinson river parkway. the roadrunner did have the discs on the car when the car was seen briefly before it was put away when the original owner went to vietnam in 69.
