A short while back I replaced my "original" wheels on my 1968 C3 with a set of American Racing ones.
Now, I have no idea if the old wheels I took off were "original" to my car, or replacements ones etc (they do "look" like original wheels).
I was wondering if anyone knew what markings I should be looking for on the wheels to identify them, and indeed how to determine their size as well, as a 1968 should be 7 inch I think (8 inch for 1969 onwards?). And yes, for those of you thinking "err, a tape measure?", well I did that at various places on the wheel and the answer is "I'm not sure". Hence I thought I'd ask about markings etc).
Thanks all. And yes, once I've determined what wheels they are, I'll put them up for sale as they are just taking up space now, and I'll post photos of them etc.
