Mexico rims, I think you can band Mk3 cortina rims to get the look
|
| |
Atmo V8 Power . No slicks , No gas + No bits missing . Doing it in style.
Austin A35van, very different------- but still doing it in style, going to be a funmoble

I think the rims are Mexico rims in that picture, they may be Mk3 cortina rims. so you could get some mk3 r9ims and get them banded.

Thanks,
Yes these are the type of rims Iām after.
My Cortina has some after market alloys which are nice, but I prefer the original look. Manage to source some original hub caps at vast cost from Australia. Now need the wheels.
Come chaps - search around - help needed here š

You simply find someone who can, maybe ask on here for a start? if it's going to save you enough money to get either what you want or as near to what you want, surely it's worth a go? Good luck either way.

can t believe these are so hard to find? there are a few sets on the continent, but most are collection only and of course shipping and customs might be a lot more than the wheels itself.
