I'm part of a group of car clubs in Missoula, MT. that are building a 67 Barracuda as a fund-raising car for Camp Mak-A-Dream in Montana. It's a camp that serves kids from all over the country who have cancer. This car is in excellent condition - but it's a slant 6 and has the small bolt pattern hubs. Looking for a supplier for wheels that we can buy to dress this car up. We're putting in new interior, doing some minor rust repair and paint...but staying with a rebuilt slant 6. Don't really want to change out hubs, so any ideas for 5x4 14 inch wheels for this car?

You can still get Cragar's new with the small 5x4 bolt pattern.

Nice looking, strong wheels, new or used.
My '67 notch originally came with body colored painted rims and hubcaps with the thin red stripe. Actually pretty sharp I thought.
Other 5 x4 rims that are pretty available are cast aluminum 'slots', aka "Ansen" rims, but were made by a number of otehr manufacturers as well. A version is also available new from American Racing Equipment. I don't think they look quite as sharp, but that's just my opinion.
These are probably all your cheapest options that are good for street use.

Thanks everyone for your input - We really appreciate it. I think the group has decided to go with Cragar's. Incidentally - keep an eye on here for the Mopars At The Fort listing for next summer. We'll be selling raffle tickets starting April 1 for this 67 Barracuda and give it away at the Mopar Show on Saturday, July 18th in Missoula, MT. A limited number of tickets will be sold and 100% of the proceeds will go to Camp Mak-A-Dream. Thanks also to Dante's Parts who has offered to sell us an interior package with a price reduction because its for this charity car.
