68 Camper Special wheel help
Hi Guys,
I have a 1968 F250 camper special, and am looking for the original 16.5" wheels.
I bought a set of dog dish hubcaps and they appear to be just shy of 12" diameter and now am looking for a lead on wheels.
In my album I posted a picture of a wheel I found for sale. Can anyone tell me if this looks correct to fit the dog dish's. It looks like there are 4 raised areas to hold the hubcap and I'm wondering if this is correct?

Also looking for a complete steering column for the truck. It's an automatic and I have a steering wheel, just not the correct column. Any leads would be appreciated. I am located in Wisconsin.
Thanks !
Matt

D5TZ-1007-C (replaced C7TZ-1007-C & D3TZ-1007-A) .. Wheel-16.5" x 6.75" */ Use with 8.75" x 16.5" or 9.50" x 16.5" tubeless tires / Obsolete
1967/79 F250/350 Camper Specials except 1973/79 F350 Regular Cab Super Camper/Trailer Special on the 140" wheelbase (this wheel is 16.5" x 9.75").
* This is an "outie" wheel, so called because the hubcap snaps over tabs located on the outside of the wheels center section.
Parts catalog pic: TYPE 4 hubcaps were used on 1967/77 F250/350's, 1969/74 E300's and 1975/77 E250/350's, but there are two different diameters of these hubcaps.
Some 1967/69 F250/350's (not Camper Specials) came with "innie" wheels, so called because the hubcap snaps over tabs located on the inside of the wheels center section.
There are two versions of these hubcaps: Standard Cab/Custom: Painted gray with black accents. Custom Cab/Sport Custom/Ranger/Ranger XLT/Econoline Chateau: Stainless steel w/black accents.

Matt - I have a set directly off my '69 Ranger Camper Special. They are the original wheels. I also have a steering column from that same vehicle.
If you are interested - let me know. I have a brother near Chicago and he could get the pieces to you. I also have a set of the hub caps like the ones shown as Type 4 above.
Send me a PM if you have any interest.
Cheers - Doug
