Anyone have any info on these rims.... Never had tires mounted or been on the road at all... too bad I only have one center cap.
The "shelby" site I asked on is so slow I have not even had a response to a thread now for several days. :roll:
More pics...

These are not VW pattern I know but they did make them in VW pattern and many others... many sizes. I am just asking if anyone knows what these might be worth since they in such good shape and never been mounted. |

The company that sold these wheels was only using Carroll Shelbys name back in the 70's. I sold them for all kind of cars and did very well.
The name of the company was Shelby International, Inc. and was located in Los Angeles, CA. They went out of business due to the fact auto manufacturs were using wheels direct on the cars.
The ones posted in your thread is most likely worth about $ 50.00 each,
if you can find a use for them. There is a letter stamped on the reverse lip that will list the bolt circle. Like E = 4 3/4 " and F = 5".

Thanks for the info and the email Frank.
I did know that these wheels were made and marketed by Cragar ( or who ever owned and made the Cragar brand) with Shelby's name/permission.
I used to have an old tattered bit of a catalog and the boxes these wheels came in when I found them but they since disintegrated into dust over the years.
50 a piece seems pretty cheap, if that's all I can get for them then I might as well find me some adapters to fit and run them on a buggy or tube frame :lol: |

NOS slot mags can go for good money on e bay or almost nothin
it just depends on the bolt pattern, width and diameter |
