[Oletrucks] Rims for '49 Chevy Pickup

[H. E. Spencer]

I've got a set of four six lug wheels coming off of my 55 1st series truck. 
The front wheels are clear, and the rearend project is next (as in August). 
I'm 99 percent positive the wheels are 15 inch and that they are not 
original. Ask me questions and I'll have a sighted friend find the answers 
or send photos. I'm in Reno. Harry
