    Thot I'd tho this out here first..... Stumbled upon a real nice set of Fronts and Rears Aluminum 8 Lug Pontiac wheelz, Im thinkin 64 Catalina and maybe others... NOT so much rare, but at the very least, DIFFICULT to find in this condition. Appears to have plenty of BEEF for turning/cutting ...PLUS I have 4 sah weet correct Poncho stainless center caps too!

    $695/set of 4 plus shipping.

    If you're not interested, please pass it on to your Poncho buds!

    Yup. I had a 1967 Bonneville with those 8 lug wheels. There were two types, the early type from about 1960 thru 1962 and the later types from 1963 - 1968. Had to do with the drum size and offset. The 8 lug wheels that went with these Hubs/drums were only 14 inch, by the way. In case you are asked about which hubs you have, here are part numbers that are usually stamped inside the hubs somewhere:
    60 to 62 front drums: #49013 with 3” depth on shoe surface
    60 to 62 rear drums: ?????
    63 to 64 front drums: #49313 with 3” depth on shoe surface
    65 to 68 front drums: #58154 with 3.25 depth on shoe surface
    63 to 68 rear drums #49317

    So, the one you show the part number for is a 63-68 rear drum hub.

    Uhhh... I guess that I have lost it. Those look more like brake drums then wheels to me.

    Well no and yes. These are both hubs/drums and wheels. The RIMS are steel. at least thats what I've learned Poncho guys call em.
    Not right. not wrong. just different.

    I have 63 8-lugs on my 60 Ventura. Front drums are warped and rear liners have hair cracks so I am interested. However the car is in Finland so shipping would probably cost more than the wheels. Your part numbers match 63-64 but the center cups seem to be 65-68.

    If Marko, these days shipping them from Tampa to Naples FL (about 240 Km) where I live would probably cost more then the wheels!
