    I can see it. I'm at work so I'm using Internet Explorer. When I get home I'll check it on my Firefox.

    Nice rims. I like 'em.

    Are they worth anything?

    Probably not since I have a set of those in my backyard. Actually I have 2 of them on the front of my Maverick and the other 2 are in my back yard.

    don't know if they are from carrol shelby or not, but if they are they should be worth something especially for a restoration .:)

    The center caps say "Carroll Shelby" with the "CS" logo in the center

    After the muscle car business petered out in the early 70s, Shelby hung around for a few years selling aftermarket parts.
    Most where made by other companies and Shelby just put his name on them.
    I don't see a part like this being very valueable.
    It never came on anything stock.
    I know Cragar made some of his rims, don't know about this one.

    All of the Shelby cars had 5 lug. The 4 lug wheels you have, although nice are from an aftremarket dealer.

    Reminds me of the wheels that were on my mom's old '77 Corvette. I like them.
