While "surfing" the Net I came across this 78. Unfortunately it's a tad too far from Ontario, Canada. Thought it might interest someone closer.

Heck yeah. I just got a set of NOS dish hubcaps. Now I need to trade my turbine wheels for a set of the originals. I like the NOS steel wheel look of the mid-70s Spiders.

If anyone in SoCal wants to trade their original steel wheels for a nice set of aluminum turbine wheels, let me know.

What size are the Turbine wheels?
Do you have a pic?

They're 13". They have the Fiat bolt pattern. I don't know the width off the top of my head, but I can post it tomorrow. Tony said that they were really good wheels, they were expensive, and that he remembers selling them back in the '70s. I'm a stickler for stock. I've got to have the factory wheels. I'll see if I can borrow a digi cam and get some pics posted.
