    They only do the "more disireable cars"?? They did a '77 El Camino. How desireable is that for cryin'-out'loud??!! Courtney Hansen is 'da bomb, by the way.

    Billet wheels? I found the ones I want. They're not Foose though, they're Wheel Vintiques. Check these out. I want the 17-inchers. Only $410 each...:banghead:

    those are some slick looking wheels.....
    believe it or not I handed my wife a wheel catalog and told her....."you pick the wheels for the yellow mav"....now mind you this book had all types of wheels from billet to steel to aluminum....new style, old style and everything in between....
    I guess what she picked..........you'll never guess.......KEYSTONES!
    I wanted the 500's but I guess the Keystones are close enough.

    That's a beautiful set of wheels. But I also like the old Keystone classics too...ran them for several years. They also have that vintage look. :yup:

    If you get it on pimp-my-ride, you can probably get a full salon.:confused:

    Are Keystones still available? I was over at my mom's and found a set of Classic's that I forgot I even had.

    The first set of mags I ever owned were won in a drag race in my first mav, a 72 grabber that I had in high school. I beat a 68 cougar and he put his keystones and some junk tires up against an intake and carb my car had. I beat him pretty good. After a little muscle I did get my winnings. Put them on my car and then traded them in on a new set of Cragars, which I still own.

    Maverick1970, you can still by Keystone style wheels, they are now made by Cragar. They look just alike but now have the Cragar centers.

    My dad taught me a long time ago that "Everyone has there own sack of rocks":D

    Yea, What's wrong with Keystones? I have had them on my 73 4dr for over 20 years and in my opinion are the best looking wheel out there.
