Gotta wonder what those wheels would look like cleaned up, polished rims, painted center covers, and KO's installed. It would be simple to change the color of the centers, just pull them of and shoot them. You could change color on a weekly basis !
You have the name and location of the original owner on the one plaque, I would search the internet for more info on him, who knows, you might strike gold !
Good luck, looks like a fun project.

Actually, it's a white shifter knob with a Cobra insignia in it. It's kind of rusty so I have no plans to keep it that way. I have extra black Ford shifter knobs here so I'll probably put one on it later (if it'll fit).
I'm still not sure what I'm going to do with those rims, the chrome is shot on them. For right now, they'll stay on the car so it's movable. I may play with them later on one of my other cars. I always wanted to see what a 7 Litre Galaxie would look like with fat tires on it.
A general search for his name in that area turns up nothing. I'm thinking it's a dead end at the moment. I will keep searching though, it's still a curiosity to me.
