I somehow scored some wheels that I have been wanting someone to produce for yrs,


and as far as I know, they are a--- one off set, im the only guy on the planet with a billet alloy version of the 1930's General jumbo artillery wheels made by cleve-weld. So I now have more than one thing in common with Jay Leno, I got one of a kind machine carved billet recreation wheels.


for the 10th time-last Dec I typed aluminum billet artillery wheel into bing and searched, and bingo, like magic, what I had searched for yrs--was there IN AN ebay auction...............


an aluminum set of General Jumbos,, the perfect size for contemporary rubber 16x7. the perfect gm 4 3/4 bolt pattern................ how the phucc could this be? My luck does not run like this...... They were there for $399 f'nn dollars for christs sake, the guys ad description said he had Stockton wheels custom produce them for a custom rod he was building, they cost him $3000 to have made. and the offset was just not perfect, so I scored them for around 1/8 what he paid, best damn Christmas present ive ever got! I tried to get info from Stockton about them but the company was sold 8 yrs back, and the current owners don't really know much--about wheels--or anything, anyhow, whatever outfit Stockton had to wittle alloy wheels for them..... Someone out there has a cnc file for these wheels.
