I pulled the wheels off today and could not find any red paint what so ever. They were however painted gloss black at one time.... BUT, under the gloss black where the wheel had seated on the drums was a semi or flat black. Were the drum painted a black at all on the face's or could that be paint from the back of the original wheel when it was installed at the factory?

#2 QUESTION.

With red line tires, could you have hubcaps with red lines?

#3 QUESTION.
Were the steel wheels always painted body color in 68 or could my silver car of had black wheels with red lines?

Thanks!
