    My 1966 289 coupe came with these 5 lug weld racing wheels. I'd like to switch to some styled steel or torq thrust wheels. Before I go selling them, I'd like to know the name of the style so I can find some values. Any suggestions on how much to sell them for are greatly appreciated.

    A while back I had restoration/rust repair/structural work done my 68 convertible --- badly. Looks like, in order to get everything to fit properly, I will likely have to pull a lot of it apart, learn to weld it back together and go from there. Because of the work that has already been...
