Peter kindly came back with this update....Maybe a search will turn up something on Jones?
"The Wheels were manufactured for us by a Jones Engineering; as best that I can recall they were located in Indiana. Contemporary owned the molds but I can’t recall what became of them."

That looks just like my front wheel alright. Next time I have it off the car I'll measure offset but am sure if you have a Contemporary with Jag front and Contemporary IRS that will be the same. Thanks for the pics of wheels and excellent cars. Would that be CSX2259 that Dan Gurney raced? Is the red 73 car yours?

There's a Jones Engineering in Washington, IN, but it looks like they're pretty much nothing but cylinder heads.
