C161 solid rear rims

Recommended Posts

Ok so the C161 is sorted and running great but I've been told the rear rims may be wrong so need to work this out as others say a solid rim may be an option at the time... I need a wheel horse guru to put me right please 😉imageproxy.php?img=&key=233175c88be08e9b

I remember talking to a gentleman at the big show a few years ago. I believe it was Chad Veromin? Anyway I was told that there was a shortage of the "regular" style rims in late 1977 into the early 79. So another manufacturer supplied these solid rims. Seems like that could be true, but I can't say for sure. I always wanted a set of those rims and recently was given a C-160 Automatic that had homemade concrete wheel weights. The other day I was looking at it and noticed it had solid wheels, so today off came the ugly weights to reveal my solid wheels!!!
