Hi, Don: When Carter sold 3047 to Jack Launtz, it had a mis-matched set of wheels, using 6.5" FIA Halibrands on the front and 9.5" Cobra II Halibrands on the rear. Another of Carter's former cars, 3044, had the reverse, with the 7.5" Cobra II's at the front and 8.5" FIA's at the rear. My guess is that when Bob Jordan owned both 3047 and 3006, he decided to put the wheels that had been on 3006 onto 3047. But by that point in time, 3006 already had a replacement set of wheels on it, installed by Geoff Howard during a restoration several years earlier. Those are the wheels you likely received.
