I believe the Ford's had a chrome lip like the new aftermarket ones, and were available in 14's and 15's. Mopars were 14's only and generally used a trim ring.
The only difference in the new aftermarket ones is the center caps.

68 wheels don't have a trim ring whereas 69 and later used a polished or brushed trim ring. The section under the trim ring was painted black and not chromed like the non-trim-ring versions.

Ford wheels do NOT fit over the rear axle stubs...

Also, the Ford wheel use the 13/16" lug nut so the lug hole countersinks in the wheel are larger....the 3/4" Mopar nut sits too deep in the countersink.
