Default Cars with Aluminum Slots

Aluminum slots of any or most brands are dynamite on a variety of cars.

WOW,,, those are gorgeous ! Those McCreary:s are the 'tits' ....
at first glance I thought the car had chrome reversed with slots only up front ...duh...
The white drums, high polished rim,lack of center cap gave that illusion.....till I saw the other pics ....

Slots are more pretty today I think because we have show polished wheels on 'Nicer cars' than most had back then.
I just can't take the slots off the front of my Camaro, it has big Cragars on the back....( Best of both Worlds). and a lot of guys had mixed wheels, I know I did and as a kid built a lot of models that way......I hope this thread brings out some treasures of aluminum !

Funny... I hated those wheels back in the 80s/90s when every beat-up trailer park 2nd gen Camaro was running a corroded set with incorrect offsets. Now, I think they look really cool on late 60s/70s cars when done &quot;right&quot; as per samples shown above. Someone here posted a black '69 Camaro with slots an L60s a few months back. It looked perfect!

You're 200% on it !.
and the trailer trash cars turned us all off that lasted decades.
did you see my reply to you about a RWL Billboard G 60 14 ?? I may 'trunk it as my spare'...
That Black 69 is a COPO with Yellow houndstoorh wearing a restored set of ansen sprints.. gorgeous
