1966 Original Rims
I have a '66 with bad aftermarket rims (with extensions?). What was the original size of the rims that came with the truck and does anyone have a picture of what they look like? I don't know if I should go original or some aftermarket ones? Check out the picture of my truck in my gallery and tell me what you think.

I personally like the original look. Look at my gallery to see the original look with the hubcaps. However, from you photos it looks like you are going a diferent direction. For more of a hotrod look, I have always thought steel wheels painted the same color as the body with a dogdish and chrome rings (kind of like the old corvette rallye wheels). Just a thought

Frank, Whatever you do get a safe set of wheels under that old Ford ASAP! I don't like extenshions or spacers ar adapters of any kind.
Ferrel, Got the old bug looking good. Did you ever get the AC sorted out?

Hey William - The A/C is ready to go...just need to make a few final connections and mount the switches. Looking back, I do not know if I should have done it since as of last October, I moved to Massachusetts. Havn't needed any AC yet, but sure enjoyed having a modern heater over the winter.
