Re: Old style cragar ss vs the new style ss
Thanks !!!
My aim on this build from the get go was for "guys of your era" to be the "instruction sheet" and gain their approval of my endeavors as the end result will be obvious. This kind of Restoration is tougher than a stock OEM build where a catalog is your guide & reproduction cars are in abundance Tom

Re: Old style cragar ss vs the new style ss
Well good news guys! Strangely enough I just found a set last night of original 15x4 direct fit cragars with moroso drag special tires 5.50-15 both are in real nice shape. Wheels might need to be re-chromed but might be salvage the lug but pockets!

Nice! Those wheels are the correct era/style for a '69.

Re: Old style cragar ss vs the new style ss
I looked for like 6 months for a set of 15x4 cragars for my 69. One night I was on my local craigslist and typed in "cragar". There they were.. 15x4 cragars 5x4.750 still in the boxes!
got em for 200 bucks in dusty old boxes. The funny think is they were lised on there for quite a while and nobody bought them. LUCK ! I have newer 15x10s on the rear. unilug. I think the newer 15x10s have a step in the hoop that the older ones don't so I'm still looking for a set of old 15x10s. Love the cragars!
