Title: 1967 Shelby steel wheel identification
Post by: 68blk500c on February 19, 2020, 09:40:01 PM
Excellent topic Pete.
May I suggest someone post a topic on the 67 steel wheels.  My limited experience is that the vent slots are shaped differently.

I heard that the Shelby 1968 wheels are the  C8AZ-1007-B part number and the wheels were marked with a C8AA number, is that true because I have never seen them with this number

Paper stick on labels were pretty typical but didn't last long/hold up well

Ok good to know. If there are more infos about steel wheels, lets go. All in one thread should help.

I believe the 1967 wheels have three slots and three nubs in the center. Of course, date codes

I have a set of wheels that have 66 stamped on the hub, identical to the 67s pictured, with the KW and month stamp...those still have 4 slots and 3 knubs. not sure i have ever seen a wheel with 3 slots.

Actually it is better for others searching in the future as a stand alone thread. I will ask moderator to split it out.

Maybe 3 was the nubs, does that work?
