Re:Re: What was that?

The rims on this car were 13 or 14" and not Cabby wheels.  Wish I would have 
talked to the lady now.  Could have had all this straightened out.....The 
spokes on them were wide and star shaped...tapering to the outer rim.  They 
really looked like OE and I know I've seen them somewhere before.  Maybe 
they're off some other car, GM or something.  Another unsolved mystery.
