Help with spinners

SACoupe · #1 (**permalink**) 05-27-2005, 04:23 PM

does anyone know where i can get a set of fake spinners for the fake Hallibrand wheelcovers which used to be around. i have a good set of covers i want to use on my 61 Studebaker Lark hardtop, but have to source the spinners and the threaded tube onto which these spinner fasten.
i have even spoken to the guys who make the pin drive wheels for vintage wheel ihere in South Africa and they have no idea
HELP

SA, Since you are posting on the Backdraft forum, I will assume you have a reason. Backdraft uses Team III wheels on their cars. Team III has a new spinner w/ lug nut cover on it. Check out the Team III website and you can see it. If you don't care about the lug nut showing, their normal spinners have a threaded insert and a spinner that goes through the wheel. I don't know if it would work on wheel covers though.

thanks Tfarhood,
i inadvertently placed the post on the Backdraft forum as i have just ordered a complete car from them with pin drive wheels which do not have any lug nuts. habit i guess, or stupidity, but thanks for the pointers.
i will check out Team III and see what i come up with
