Chasetruck has or had Excursion wheels on one of his 73-79 F-250s. But like mentioned above the pattern is different. He modified the wheel, you can try a search or maybe he will chime in. I thought it looked pretty good.

I just called today about getting a set modified, $65-$90 per wheel. Total deal breaker.
